计算机几乎应用于语言学习的各个方面，并在这一领域创造了许多机会。本研究旨在探讨使用电脑进行语音学习与训练的整体效果。我们进行了一项荟萃分析，比较了使用计算机学习外语发音的学生和使用传统教学方法学习发音的学生的结果。这项荟萃分析考察了效果大小如何根据学习者的年龄、学习者的目标语言熟练程度、发音特征、教育水平、环境、治疗持续时间和评估任务而变化。本荟萃分析通过回顾涉及1014名参与者的20项研究，检验了使用计算机对发音学习的影响。meta分析的结果表明，计算机辅助训练对英语发音有积极的影响（d=0.68），对年轻和成年学习者同样有效，但对初级和中级学习者比高级学习者更有效。研究还表明，计算机辅助发音训练（CAPT）对大学生比中学生更有益。然而，在解释结果时必须谨慎。研究数量少，质量很低（大多数参与者少于100人，在同一机构内使用干预相关评估进行），这意味着有效性的证据只能是指示性的，而不是结论性的。需要更有力、更大规模的研究，涉及多个机构，并使用客观的标准化测试，以获得更确凿的结果。
Computers are used in almost all aspects of language learning and have also created numerous opportunities in this area. This study aims to examine the overall effectiveness of using a computer in pronunciation learning and training. A meta‐analysis of studies was conducted, which compared the outcomes of students learning the pronunciation of a foreign language (FL) using a computer with the results from those learning pronunciation based on traditional methods of teaching. This meta‐analysis examined how effect sizes varied depending on the learners’ age, learners’ target language proficiency, features of pronunciation, educational level, settings, treatment duration, and assessment tasks. This meta‐analysis examined the effect of using a computer on pronunciation learning by reviewing 20 studies involving 1014 participants. The findings of the meta‐analysis suggest that computer‐assisted training has a positive effect on FL pronunciation (d=0.68), and is equally effective for both young and adult learners, but more effective for beginner and intermediate learners than advanced learners. The studies also suggest that computer‐assisted pronunciation training (CAPT) is more beneficial for university students than for school students. However, caution has to be exercised in interpreting the results. The small number of studies, all of very low quality (most with fewer than 100 participants, conducted within the same institution using intervention‐related assessments) means that the evidence of effectiveness can only be indicative and not conclusive. More robust, large‐scale studies involving several institutions and using objective standardised tests would be needed for more conclusive results.
