It is an acutely hard and intricate matter to assess the skill of speaking. Holistic and analytic scoring are usually utilized as two methods of testing the speaking performance. In the current study, these two methods of evaluating the spoken proficiency were examined in depth. English speaking skills of a total of 70 subjects, who were Iranian third-grade university EFL learners, were assessed by an interlocutor and an assessor. The interlocutor carried out the holistic scoring while the assessor conducted the analytic scoring. Categories within the analytic scoring comprised of content and organization, pronunciation, vocabulary, and grammar. The analytic average for the four criteria was 3.396, while the holistic scoring mean was 3.628. The findings revealed that there existed a statistically significant difference between the holistic and analytic methods of assessment as the p-value was calculated at 0.002 (p < 0.05). It is, thus, suggested that applying both techniques of scoring in the assessment process might be regarded suitable as they seem to supplement each other, and together help towards more comprehensive assessment.

通过评分的整体和分析技术对口语能力的评估:一项比较研究

评估口语技巧是一件非常困难和复杂的事情。整体评分和分析评分通常用作测试口语表现的两种方法。在当前的研究中,这两种评估口语水平的方法进行了深入研究。对话和评估人员对伊朗70年级的EFL三级学习者的英语口语能力进行了评估。对话者进行整体评分,而评估者进行分析评分。分析评分中的类别包括内容和组织,发音,词汇和语法。四个标准的分析平均值为3.396,而整体评分平均值为3.628。研究结果表明,整体评估和分析评估之间存在统计学上的显着差异,因为p值的计算值为0.002(p <0.05)。因此,建议在评估过程中应用两种评分技术可能被认为是合适的,因为它们似乎可以相互补充,共同有助于更全面的评估。
