摘要：This quantitative study is an attempt to estimate the intra-rater reliability of student self-assessment of their speaking performances and to find out whether there is significant difference between the self-assessment intra-rater reliability of speaking performance without training and that of with training.The rater training used is adapted from the model developed by Herman,Aschbacher and Winters (1992).This study which employed equivalent timesamples design collected data by asking 45 students to conduct selfassessment on their six speaking performances.It was found that the range of rs was 0.611 to 0.752 which means the consistency within students in assessing their own speaking performance was moderate high to high.The intra-rater reliability of the self assessment after the treatments is higher than that of other experience being available in the absence of the treatment.It is concluded that rater training improves the intra-rater reliability.Therefore,it is suggested to train the students on how to assess before employing selfassessment in speaking instructions.
