The tracking method of auditory-visual speech reception training was used with normal hearing subjects in an attempt to quantify the effectiveness of this procedure, which uses connected discourse. A related purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a contextually based training procedure on the recognition of syllables (visemes), sentences, and connected discourse. Results of this study indicated that all subjects improved in their ability to track connected discourse over a span of several training sessions; however, asymptotic performance was not achieved by any subject. Furthermore, results indicated significant improvement on post-training tests of syllable recognition and intelligibility estimation of connected discourse for the experimental subjects. However, no significant improvement was observed for sentence recognition. Implications for the tracking method as part of an aural rehabilitation program are discussed.
对听力正常的受试者采用视听言语接收训练的追踪方法，旨在量化该使用连贯话语的训练程序的有效性。本研究的另一个目的是调查基于语境的训练程序对音节（视位）、句子和连贯话语识别的影响。本研究结果表明，所有受试者在经过几次训练后追踪连贯话语的能力都有所提高；然而，没有任何受试者达到渐近表现。此外，结果表明，实验对象在训练后音节识别和连贯话语可懂度估计测试中取得了显著进步。但是，句子识别方面未观察到显著改善。文中讨论了追踪方法作为听觉康复计划一部分的意义。
