有很多方法可以用来评估咀嚼性能，但并不是所有的技术都适用于每个人群。由于缺乏一种适用于老年痴呆症患者的口香糖代理，为此，对双色口香糖混合能力测试进行了研究。将全自动数字分析算法应用于使用两种颜色的口香糖样本的混合能力测试，按照逐步增加的咀嚼周期方案(实验1：N=14；7名男性，19-63岁)，测试-重测评估(实验2：N=10；4名男性，20-49岁)，并与已建立的蜡块混合能力测试(实验3：N=13；0名男性，21-31岁)进行比较。数据分析采用重复测量ANOVA(实验1)、计算组内相关系数(ICC；实验2)和Spearman‘s Rho相关系数(实验3)。该方法对咀嚼次数增加敏感(F5，65=6.57·270，P=0.000)，重测结果可靠(IC值为0.714，P=0.004)。双色口香糖测试和蜡块测试之间没有显著的相关性。双色口香糖混合能力测试能够充分评估咀嚼功能，建议在患有痴呆症的老年人中使用。
Many techniques are available to assess masticatory performance, but not all are appropriate for every population. A proxy suitable for elderly persons suffering from dementia was lacking, and a two‐colour chewing gum mixing ability test was investigated for this purpose. A fully automated digital analysis algorithm was applied to a mixing ability test using two‐coloured gum samples in a stepwise increased number of chewing cycles protocol (Experiment 1:n=14; seven men, 19–63 years), a test–retest assessment (Experiment 2:n=10; four men, 20–49 years) and compared to an established wax cubes mixing ability test (Experiment 3:n=13; 0 men, 21–31 years). Data were analysed with repeated measuresanova(Experiment 1), the calculation of the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC; Experiment 2) and Spearman's rho correlation coefficient (Experiment 3). The method was sensitive to increasing numbers of chewing cycles (F5,65= 57·270,P=0·000) and reliable in the test–retest (ICC value of 0·714,P=0·004). There was no significant correlation between the two‐coloured gum test and the wax cubes test. The two‐coloured gum mixing ability test was able to adequately assess masticatory function and is recommended for use in a population of elderly persons with dementia.
