关于空间尺寸配合（紧与松）的研究一直基于一个默认但未经检验的假设，即尺寸配合是对称的，紧配合和松配合的关系突出了尺寸配合具有相等的力。我们提出了一个重新表述，记录成年人的英语（实验1）和韩语（实验2）是敏感的尺寸适合，但他们的代表是不对称的，紧配合的事件突出适合更大的力量比宽松的事件。我们认为，对维度拟合的敏感性比以前提出的更有弹性，并且这里记录的不对称性提供了一个基础，可以在此基础上探讨语言与我们潜在的空间表征之间关系的细微问题。
Research concerning the spatial dimension fit (tight versus loose) has been based on a tacit but untested assumption that the dimension fit is symmetrical, with tight- and loose-fitting relations highlighting the dimension fit with equal force. We propose a reformulation, documenting that adult speakers of English (Experiment 1) and Korean (Experiment 2) are sensitive to the dimension fit, but that their representation is asymmetric, with tight-fitting events highlighting fit with greater force than loose-fitting events. We propose that sensitivity to the dimension fit is more resilient than has previously been suggested, and that the asymmetry documented here provides a foundation upon which to pursue nuanced questions about the relationship between language and our underlying representations of space.
