Les exercices de résumé sont utlisés durant l’apprentissange des techniques d’interprétation consecutive, mais rares sont les études empiriques sur l’efficacité de cette méthode. Un groupe témoin et un groupe expérimental sont composés pour tester l’efficacité de ces exercices. Le groupe témoin, qui ont fait moins d’exercices de resumés était moins performant que le groupe experimental. Cependant, la différence statistique était trop insignifiante pour pouvoir trancher. Pourtant cette étude pourrait être utilisé comme catalyseur pour encourager les recherches empiriques sur l’enseignement de la consécutive.
