A national online survey was used to investigate spontaneous language sampling and analysis practices by speech-language pathologists working with children and adolescents. A total of 257 responses were received from clinicians around Australia. Results indicated that spontaneous language samples are collected on a routine basis in elicitation contexts deemed appropriate to the clients' age or developmental stage. However, language samples were generally short, often not recorded, and analysed informally. Consistent with previous research into language sampling practices, the main barrier to more detailed language sample analysis appears to be the time needed for transcription. Despite rapid technological advances in the last two decades, only 12.5% of the respondents reported using computer-assisted transcription and analysis procedures. Suggestions are made on how to promote change in clinical practice to ensure spontaneous language samples are transcribed and analysed in more detail. By transcribing the samples, detailed analysis of children's language performance can be undertaken, allowing for effective goal-setting and assisting in objective progress measuring during and following intervention.
一项全国性在线调查旨在研究从事儿童和青少年工作的言语病理学家的自发语言采样和分析实践。共收到来自澳大利亚各地临床医生的257份回复。结果表明，在被认为适合客户年龄或发育阶段的诱发情境中，会定期收集自发语言样本。然而，语言样本通常较短，往往没有记录，且分析方式较为随意。与先前对语言采样实践的研究一致，更详细的语言样本分析的主要障碍似乎是转录所需的时间。尽管在过去二十年中技术取得了快速进步，但只有12.5%的受访者报告使用计算机辅助转录和分析程序。文中就如何促进临床实践的改变提出了建议，以确保对自发语言样本进行更详细的转录和分析。通过转录样本，可以对儿童的语言表现进行详细分析，从而实现有效的目标设定，并有助于在干预期间和之后进行客观的进展评估。
