有强有力的证据表明句法启动在语言产生中起作用(Bock,1986),但很少有证据表明这种影响的时间进程。我们报道了一项实验,该实验考察了句法启动在书面语言产生中衰退的情况。参与者完成的句子片段允许用两种句法形式中的一种来完成(Pickering&Branigan,1998)。即使两个片段描述了不同的事件,它们也倾向于为紧接的连续片段产生相同的句法形式。然而,当实验片段被其他具有无关句法形式的片段分开时,这种趋势迅速减弱。结果表明,当随后产生其他结构时,书面产出中的启动效应迅速衰减。我们讨论了句法信息在生产过程中应用的意义。
There is strong evidence for syntactic priming in language production (Bock, 1986), but little evidence about the time course of such effects. We report an experiment that examined the circumstances under which syntactic priming decays in written language production. Participants completed sentence fragments that allowed completions with one of two syntactic forms (Pickering & Branigan, 1998). They tended to produce the same syntactic form for immediately consecutive fragments, even though the two fragments described different events. However, when the experimental fragments were separated by other fragments with unrelated syntactic forms, this tendency rapidly diminished. The results suggest that priming effects in written production decay rapidly when other structures are subsequently produced. We discuss the implications for the application of syntactic information during production.
