| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the survey for this study, it was found that oral tests are rarely administered in the native language during school education in China, Korea, and Japan. In order to investigate the effect of this educational background on the monologue task of high-stakes English speaking tests, we examined cognitive processes during task performance in the native language (L1) and English (L2). Japanese subjects rated themselves lower than Chinese and Korean subjects in both their L1 and L2 on 5 items in a post-test questionnaire for which statistically significant differences were found (p < 0.05) between countries of origin. In addition, the responses of all subjects to a further 5 items related to both the planning and speaking phases of the task, suggested that the language processing required was demanding even in the L1.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究では、世界的規模で実施される英語運用評価試験(IELTS, iBT TOEFL等）に含まれるスピーキングテストで採用されているタスクの一つ「モノローグ」に着目し、受験者の出身国における学校教育での試験形式（e.g.筆記、口述試験）と、モノローグタスク遂行時の母語と英語での認知プロセスとの関連性を検証した。特に中国・韓国・日本の試験・評価方法について考証し、アジアでも試験結果の重要性が高いテスト(high-stakes tests)において、「モノローグ」タスクを使用することの妥当性を検討することが可能となった。
