摘要 手语测试开发是手语学中一个相对较新的领域，其动机是评估不同学习者群体（L1、L2）语言发展的评估工具的实际需求。由于缺乏对许多手语的结构和习得的研究，开发评估工具给测试开发人员带来了方法上的挑战。现有的手语测试在不同程度上使用信息和通信技术（ICT）来进行测试，例如基于网络的测试或本地安装在计算机硬盘上的应用程序。为了全面了解手语测试的最新技术以及测试开发人员在使用与手语测试相关的 ICT 时看到的优点/缺点，发起了一项国际调查 (N = 19)。该调查是使用在线调查工具 LimeSurvey 进行分发的。这项探索性研究的结果首次概述了与使用 ICT 进行手语测试相关的问题，并表明有些问题与计算机/网络提供的口语测试所面临的问题相当，而其他问题则针对手语。未来需要更多的研究来探索信息通信技术在手语测试开发中的潜力和挑战。
Abstract Sign language test development is a relatively new field within sign linguistics, motivated by the practical need for assessment instruments to evaluate language development in different groups of learners (L1, L2). Due to the lack of research on the structure and acquisition of many sign languages, developing an assessment instrument poses methodological challenges to test developers. Existing sign language tests use information and communication technologies (ICT) to different degrees for test delivery, for example Web-based tests or an application that is installed locally on a computer's hard drive. In order to gain an overview of the state of the art with respect to the delivery of sign language tests and the advantages/disadvantages that test developers see in the usage of ICT related to sign language tests, an international survey was launched (N = 19). The survey was distributed using the online survey tool LimeSurvey. The results of this exploratory study provide a first overview of issues related to the usage of ICT for sign language test delivery and indicate that some issues are comparable to those faced by computer-/Web-delivered tests for spoken languages, whereas others are sign language specific. For the future more research is needed to explore the potentials and challenges of ICT for sign language test development.
