本研究运用内隐社会认知领域的概念和方法,考察了人们对外国口音和美国口音的语言态度。内隐态度的测量使用内隐联想测试(IAT),包括音频线索作为实验刺激。通过自我报告问卷测量明确的态度。参与者表现出亲美国口音偏见的IAT措施,但亲外国口音偏见的明确措施。这种分歧支持的结论,内隐和外显的态度是可分离的态度结构,从不同的心理过程,并建议语言态度的研究,传统上只测量外显的态度,将受益于纳入间接措施。联想-命题评价模型是一个全面而一致的理论,可以用来解释语言态度的认知过程。
This study applies concepts and methods from the domain of Implicit Social Cognition to examine language attitudes toward foreign and U.S. accented speech. Implicit attitudes were measured using an Implicit Association Test (IAT) that incorporated audio cues as experimental stimuli. Explicit attitudes were measured through self-report questionnaires. Participants exhibited a pro-U.S. accent bias on the IAT measure but a pro-foreign accent bias on explicit measures. This divergence supports the conclusion that implicit and explicit attitudes are separable attitude constructs resulting from distinct mental processes and suggests that language attitudes research-which has traditionally measured only explicit attitudes-would benefit by incorporating indirect measures. The Associative-Propositional Evaluation Model is proposed as a comprehensive and consistent theory to explain the cognitive processing of language attitudes.
