摘要

本文章主要在回顧2001年1月至2006年7月間由臺灣學者所發表關於英文聽力能力評量的研究。本文共包含二十五篇台灣學者於國內外期刊及國內研討會論文集所發表的文章，並對這些研究結果加以分析。從收錄的論文中，共歸類出九項議題：(l)聽力前預備練習的輔助作用，(2)不同聽力主題對於聽力表現的影響，(3)不同題型對於聽力表現的影響，(4)聽力訊息的改變對於聽力表現的影響，(5)筆記抄寫技巧的評量，(6)聽力測驗中所使用之策略及考試焦慮對於策略使用的影響，(7)以診斷式評量找出聽力困難，(8)以檔案評量來評估聽力程度，(9)教師對於聽力測驗所持之想法與態度。本篇文章期能帶出更多對現有議題之深入探討以及在台灣尚未被探索之議題的研究。

This paper is a review of studies on the assessment of listening ability conducted by Taiwanese researchers that were published between January 2001 and July 2006. Papers written by Taiwanese scholars that have been published in international and domestic journals as well as in proceedings of conferences held in Taiwan are summarized and presented with critical analyses of their results. Based on a review of twenty-five papers, nine topics that have been investigated by Taiwanese researchers are identified. They are (1) roles of pre-listening support, (2) effects of different types of listening texts on listening performance, (3) effects of different response formats on listening performance, (4) effects of modified listening input on listening performance, (5) assessment of note-taking skills, (6) strategies used in listening tests and effects of test anxiety on strategy use, (7) diagnostic testing of listening problems, (8) portfolio assessment of listening ability, and (9) teachers’ beliefs and attitudes toward listening tests. The paper ends by calling for more research on existing topics as well as on topics that still remain unexplored in Taiwan.
