Intelligibility measures, which assess the number of words or phonemes a listener correctly transcribes or repeats, are commonly used metrics for speech perception research. While these measures have many benefits for researchers, they also come with a number of limitations. By pointing out the strengths and limitations of this approach, including how it fails to capture aspects of perception such as listening effort, this article argues that the role of intelligibility measures must be reconsidered in fields such as linguistics, communication disorders, and psychology. Recommendations for future work in this area are presented.
可懂度测量，用于评估听众正确转录或重复的单词或音素数量，是语音感知研究中常用的指标。虽然这些方法对研究人员有很多好处，但它们也存在一些局限性。本文通过指出这种方法的优点和局限性，包括它如何无法捕捉感知的方面，如听力努力程度，认为在语言学、沟通障碍和心理学等领域，必须重新考虑可懂度测量的作用。并提出了该领域未来工作的建议。
