摘要 本研究解决了使用自我评估来评估 SLA 研究参与者的语言能力的问题。在 SLA 领域进行研究时，分析潜在参与者的语言背景非常重要；然而，寻找多种语言的可比评估测试来满足语言学习者不同语言背景的需求，以及难以抽出时间对具有多种语言经验的人进行测试，都阻碍了语言背景数据的成功收集。这项研究的结果支持通过使用自我评估来确定语言学习者的语言背景的另一种方法，特别是使用欧洲共同参考框架（CEFR）的可以做陈述。本研究结果为自我评估在SLA研究中的使用提供了实证支持
Abstract This study addresses the issue of using self-assessments to evaluate the language proficiency of participants in SLA research. When conducting research in the field of SLA, it is important to analyze the linguistic background of potential participants; however, finding comparable assessment tests in multiple languages to satisfy the linguistically diverse backgrounds of the language learners as well as the difficulty in finding time to administer the tests to those with experience in multiple languages impedes the successful collection of this language background data. The results of this study support an alternate way of determining language learners’ linguistic background through the use of self-assessment, specifically with the use of the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) can-do statements. The results of this study provide empirical support for the use of self-assessment in SLA research
