持续的话语跟踪是一种多功能的听觉康复程序。然而，它经常被用作评估沟通辅助工具和听觉康复策略的有效性的测试工具，或者用来比较使用听觉和/或视觉刺激的沟通表现。在本报告中，对这种做法的缺点进行了审查。连续语篇跟踪有许多与发送者(即测试者)、接收者(即受试者)、语篇材料和重复陈述有关的不可控变量。我们认为，跟踪不适合跨主题设计。对于受试者内的测试设计，提供了严格的指导方针，以最大限度地减少一些问题。测试开发人员应该把他们未来的工作重点放在设计一种反映自然交流互动的测试上--一种让受试者参与对话式倾听的测试。
Continuous discourse tracking is a versatile aural rehabilitation procedure. However, it is frequently used as a test instrument to evaluate the effectiveness of communication aids and aural rehabilitation strategies or to compare communication performance using auditory and/or visual stimuli. In this report, shortcomings of this practice are reviewed. Continuous discourse tracking has numerous uncontrolled variables related to the sender (i.e., the tester), the receiver (i.e., the subject), the text materials, and repeated presentations. We suggest that tracking is inappropriate for across-subject designs. For within-subject test designs, stringent guidelines are offered to minimize some of the problems. Test developers should focus their future efforts on devising a test that reflects a natural communication interaction--one that engages the subject in a conversational style of listening.
