头部重叠是日本用户和日本手语(JSL)用户经常观察到的现象。然而,虽然日语口语中使用的中心语是语言特征的一部分,但以往的手语研究表明,中心语在日语口语中也是一个重要的语言元素。在中心语的诸多功能中,本研究探讨了中心语作为韵律标记出现在语调短语(IP)边界的机制。四个母语为日语的人,四个母语的JSL聋人签名,和三个非母语认证的JSL口译员参加了这项研究,他们使用的韵律头的出现频率在IP边界和头部点头核(最低的头部点头位置)的时间进行了比较。结果表明,虽然在IP边界的头部重复频率显示日语使用者之间的个体差异,聋人JSL签名者系统地显示韵律头部重复IP边界在一个一贯的高利率。此外,在日本人和JSL之间观察到头部点头核的不同时间。在对聋人日语手语译员和非母语日语手语译员的对比分析中,数据显示,非母语译员在使用韵律中心语时并不像聋人手语译员那样不一致,这表明日语中心语点头行为在一定程度上会影响非母语日语手语译员对日语手语的理解。
Head nods are a frequently observed phenomenon by both Japanese users and Japanese Sign Language (JSL) users. However, while head nods used in spoken Japanese are a part of a paralinguistic feature, previous sign language studies show that head nods in JSL function as an important linguistic element. Among several functions of head nods, this study investigates the mechanism of head nods as a prosodic marker, occurring at Intonational Phrase (IP) boundaries. Four native Japanese speakers, four native JSL Deaf signers, and three non-native certified JSL interpreters participated in this study, and their use of prosodic head nods were compared regarding the frequency of occurrence at IP boundaries and the timing of the head nod nucleus (the lowest head nod position). The result shows that while the frequency of head nods at IP boundaries shows individual variation among Japanese speakers, the Deaf JSL signers systematically show prosodic head nods at IP boundaries in a consistently high rate. Also, a different timing of the head nod nucleus is observed between Japanese and JSL. As for the comparative analysis between the Deaf JSL signers and non-native JSL interpreters, the data reveals that the use of prosodic head nods by non-native interpreters is not as inconsistent as that of Deaf native signers, suggesting that Japanese head nod behavior would affect JSL interpretation by non-native JSL interpreters to some degree.
