这里报告的研究的目的是测试一个新的假设的功能，私人演讲，即儿童的私人演讲在社会背景下提出了他们有机会区分自己的声音从别人的。在一个小时的小组游戏中，收集了22名五岁奥尔兹的社交和私人言语数据。在随后的一次会议中，孩子们听到了先前小组讨论的录音片段，并被要求说出每对录音片段中的哪一个包含了他们自己的发言。结果发现，儿童在这个语音识别任务的表现是正相关的比例和频率的私人讲话的措施。言语识别测量与社交言语或整体冗长的频率之间没有关系;儿童在孤立情况下识别自己言语的能力测试中的表现并不比机会好。我们认为，这些研究结果是一致的私人演讲有一个特定的功能，在发展中的理解自己作为一个发言代理人在其他这样的扬声器。
The aim of the study reported here was to test a new hypothesis about the function of private speech, namely that children's private speech in social contexts presents them with an opportunity to distinguish their own voices from those of others. Data on the social and private speech of 22 five-year-olds were collected during single hour-long group play sessions. In a later session, children heard extracts from an audio recording of an earlier group discussion, and were asked to state which of each pair of extracts contained their own speech. It was found that children's performance on this speech recognition task was positively correlated with both proportional and frequency measures of private speech. There was no relationship between the speech recognition measure and frequencies of social speech or overall verbosity; and performance on a test of children's ability to recognise their own speech in isolation was no better than chance. We suggest that these findings are consistent with private speech having a specific function in the development of an understanding of oneself as a speaking agent among other such speakers.
