语言有时需要在多个视觉事件中跟踪同一参与者的不同主题角色(例如，被另一个女孩推的女孩追逐第三个女孩)。为了更好地理解视觉和语言在角色跟踪中是如何相互作用的，参与者描述了多个随机移动的圆圈的视频，其中有两个推送事件。圆可以在推送事件中具有相同的角色(例如，代理)或不同的角色(例如，一个推送的代理和另一个推送的患者)。前三项研究发现，在不同的语言结构操作中，与不同的角色条件相比，相同角色条件下的产出准确率更高。最后三项研究比较了特征账户和关系账户，前者的角色信息与特定的圈子相关联，后者的角色信息与特定的推送事件一起编码。这些研究没有发现不同角色之间的干扰，与特征描述的预测相反。在这些研究中，箔片被操纵以增加第二次推力的显着性，并发现这改变了描述第一次推力的准确性。结果表明，与语言相关的主题角色加工使用的是一种可以编码多个事件的关系表征。
Language sometimes requires tracking the same participant in different thematic roles across multiple visual events (e.g.,The girl that another girl pushed chased a third girl). To better understand how vision and language interact in role tracking, participants described videos of multiple randomly moving circles where two push events were presented. A circle might have the same role in both push events (e.g., agent) or different roles (e.g., agent of one push and patient of other push). The first three studies found higher production accuracy for the same role conditions compared to the different role conditions across different linguistic structure manipulations. The last three studies compared a featural account, where role information was associated with particular circles, or a relational account, where role information was encoded with particular push events. These studies found no interference between different roles, contrary to the predictions of the featural account. The foil was manipulated in these studies to increase the saliency of the second push and it was found that this changed the accuracy in describing the first push. The results suggest that language-related thematic role processing uses a relational representation that can encode multiple events.
