本文报道了一项使用双语和单语词典进行阅读理解的中级德语学习者的小规模内省研究。它调查了受试者在字典中查找单词时使用的策略，策略的使用是否依赖于字典的类型，以及为了获得更有效的策略，受试者需要训练的地方。“大声思考”的数据显示了一系列不适当的策略，导致他们无法(a)在字典中找到单词，(b)识别有多个含义的单词的合适含义，以及(c)理解不认识的单词的含义。这一发现强调了之前的说法，即学习者需要系统地学习字典的使用。提出了战略培训的三个方面。
This article reports on a small-scale introspective study of intermediate learners of German using bilingual and monolingual dictionaries for reading comprehension. It investigated which strategies the subjects used when looking up words in their dictionaries, whether strategy use is dependent on the type of dictionary, and where the subjects needed training in order to acquire more effective strategies. The think-aloud data revealed a range of inappropriate strategies that resulted in the failure (a) to locate words in the dictionary, (b) to identify the suitable meaning of words with several meanings, and (c) to understand the meaning of unknown words. The findings underline previous claims that learners need systematic instruction in dictionary use. Three areas for strategy training are proposed.
