声音符号词是由声音和意义之间的必然联系组成的。本研究旨在确定带有浊音开头辅音的日语语音符号词（VCs, dakuon，如biribiri）与带有半浊音开头辅音的日语语音符号词（SVCs, handakuon，如piripiri），以及浊音开头辅音的日语语音符号词（daradara，如daradara）与带有浊音开头辅音的日语语音符号词（VLCs, piripiri）在熟悉度、视觉可想象性、听觉可想象性、触觉可想象性、情感效价和唤醒性方面的差异。日文节；例如,taratara)。第一，听觉可想象性和唤醒性显著高于听觉可想象性，而听觉可想象性、触觉可想象性和积极情绪（情绪效价）显著高于听觉可想象性。第二，视觉可想象性高于视觉可想象性，而熟悉度和积极情绪则高于视觉可想象性。日语语音符号词的首辅音可能与特定的主观评价有关，如熟悉度、视觉可想象性、听觉可想象性、触觉可想象性、情感效价和唤醒。
Sound symbolic words consist of inevitable associations between sounds and meanings. We aimed to identify differences in familiarity, visual imageability, auditory imageability, tactile imageability, emotional valence, and arousal between Japanese sound symbolic words with voiced initial consonants (VCs; dakuon in Japanese; e.g., biribiri) and Japanese sound symbolic words with semi-voiced initial consonants (SVCs; handakuon in Japanese; e.g., piripiri), and between VCs (e.g., daradara) and Japanese sound symbolic words with voiceless initial consonants (VLCs; seion in Japanese; e.g., taratara). First, auditory imageability and arousal were significantly higher in VCs than SVCs, whereas familiarity, tactile imageability, and positive emotion (emotional valence) were significantly higher in SVCs than VCs. Second, visual imageability was higher in VCs than VLCs, while familiarity and positive emotion were higher in VLCs than VCs. Initial consonants in Japanese sound symbolic words could be associated with specific subjective evaluations such as familiarity, visual imageability, auditory imageability, tactile imageability, emotional valence, and arousal.
