In addition to widely used endorsement methods, one way to get at people's thoughts is to have them verbalize while engaged in a task or situation. The articulated thoughts in simulated situations (ATSS) paradigm is a think-aloud approach to cognitive assessment that has several advantages: an unstructured production response format, on-line rather than retrospective assessment, situational specificity and control, and flexibility of situation and cognitions. The authors review experiments that have examined articulated thoughts in clinically relevant contexts. ATSS does have certain limitations and further research into its psychometric properties is needed, but it seems promising as a versatile and adaptable method of cognitive assessment, especially when little is known of the cognitive terrain of interest.
除了广泛使用的认可方法外，了解人们想法的一种方法是让他们在参与任务或处于某种情境时说出自己的想法。模拟情境中的清晰思考（ATSS）范式是一种用于认知评估的出声思考方法，它具有几个优点：无结构的生产性反应格式、在线而非回顾性评估、情境特异性和可控性，以及情境和认知的灵活性。作者回顾了在临床相关背景下检验清晰思考的实验。ATSS确实有一定的局限性，需要对其心理测量特性进行进一步研究，但作为一种通用且适应性强的认知评估方法，它似乎很有前景，尤其是在对感兴趣的认知领域了解甚少的情况下。
