Conversational entrainment, also known as alignment, accommodation, convergence, and coordination, is broadly defined as similarity of communicative behavior between interlocutors. Within current literature, specific terminology, definitions, and measurement approaches are wide-ranging and highly variable. As new ways of measuring and quantifying entrainment are developed and research in this area continues to expand, consistent terminology and a means of organizing entrainment research is critical, affording cohesion and assimilation of knowledge. While systems for categorizing entrainment do exist, these efforts are not entirely comprehensive in that specific measurement approaches often used within entrainment literature cannot be categorized under existing frameworks. The purpose of this review article is twofold: First, we propose an expanded version of an earlier framework which allows for the categorization of all measures of entrainment of speech behaviors and includes refinements, additions, and explanations aimed at improving its clarity and accessibility. Second, we present an extensive literature review, demonstrating how current literature fits into the given framework. We conclude with a discussion of how the proposed entrainment framework presented herein can be used to unify efforts in entrainment research.

会话夹带，也称为对齐、调节、收敛和协调，广义地定义为对话者之间的交流行为的相似性。在当前的文献中，具体的术语、定义和测量方法范围广泛且变化很大。随着测量和量化夹带的新方法的开发以及该领域的研究不断扩大，一致的术语和组织夹带研究的方法至关重要，以提供知识的凝聚力和同化。虽然确实存在对夹带进行分类的系统，但这些努力并不完全全面，因为夹带文献中经常使用的具体测量方法无法在现有框架下进行分类。这篇评论文章的目的有两个：首先，我们提出了早期框架的扩展版本，该框架允许对所有言语行为诱导措施进行分类，并包括旨在提高其清晰度和可访问性的改进、添加和解释。其次，我们提出了广泛的文献综述，展示了当前文献如何适应给定的框架。最后，我们讨论了如何使用本文提出的夹带框架来统一夹带研究的工作。
