Audio Rating Task

In this task you will see a Korean word or phrase, and hear a non-Korean attempt to speak that word or phrase. Your job is to rate how well they succeeded in doing this, on a scale from 0 to 7.

7 should be used for examples that are indistinguishable from native speakers of Korean.

0 should be used when the recording is silent (i.e., the participant did not even attempt to produce the word or phrase).

1 should be used for recordings that are extremely poor attempts to repeat the word or phrase.

2 should be used for recordings that are slightly better attempts to repeat the word or phrase, and so on up to 7, giving higher ratings to capture improvements in both accurate reproduction of vocabulary and general accent.

On occasion, you will come across a recording error. For instance, a participant might say "The audio did not play" or might say a word or sentence that is completely different from the transcript. In these cases, tick the "Recording Error" checkbox and do not give a rating. Important! Do not tick the recording error checkbox for silent recordings, instead give these a score of 0.

As practice, and to understand the scale of variation, please begin by coding the first 25 items. Once you have finished these 25 and have experienced the relevant variation, return to this screen by refreshing, restart on Item 1, and recode those 25 items before continuing on to code the remainder of the dataset.

Before starting a coding session, please enter your coder ID. Additionally, as you go through the task, please keep track of the item number where you take a break. Then, when you resume your session, you can jump to that item from this screen. If you always use the same device, then a cookie will also remember these pieces of info.
