In an effort to provide some expectation regarding the influences of task and rehearsal, the narrative ability of 20 normal young adults was examined under the conditions of story retelling and story generation. Each task was repeated after a 1-week interval in order to investigate a possible practice effect. Sentence production, intersentential cohesion, and story grammar organization were analyzed. Results indicated that the subjects' performance varied as a function of task presentation as well as the measure used to describe narrative production. The only across-trials difference noted was an increase in cohesive adequacy from trial 1 to trial 2 for one of the story generation tasks. It may be concluded that (a) context does influence the manner and competence of narrative presentation, and (b) that rehearsal of a complex narrative improves narrative coherence.
为了对任务和复述的影响提供一些预期，在故事复述和故事生成的条件下，对20名正常年轻成年人的叙事能力进行了测试。每个任务在间隔1周后重复进行，以研究可能的练习效果。对句子生成、句间衔接和故事语法组织进行了分析。结果表明，受试者的表现因任务呈现方式以及用于描述叙事生成的测量方法而异。唯一观察到的跨试验差异是，在其中一个故事生成任务中，从第一次试验到第二次试验，衔接充分性有所提高。可以得出结论：(a) 语境确实会影响叙事呈现的方式和能力，(b) 复杂叙事的复述会提高叙事连贯性。
