先前的研究已经证明了语言学习者如何处理他们的第二语言（L2）的转变。最初，他们关注L2单词如何与母语（L1）单词在形式上重叠。随着二语水平的提高，语言学习者对翻译中与形式相关的相似性不那么敏感（Sunderman & Kroll，2006），并专注于单词的含义（Talamas et al.，1999年）。在目前的研究中的问题是在何种程度上的认知能力的个体差异削弱翻译策略，不熟练的学习者使用。我们假设，具有较强的主动控制的第二语言学习者，索引的AX-连续性能任务（AX-CPT），将不太容易受到形式相关的干扰跨翻译。结果表明，与我们的假设相反，参与者更依赖于主动而不是被动的目标维持经验增加形式相关的，以及语义干扰。识别中的翻译策略似乎受到认知控制中个体差异的影响，并且可能对任务条件敏感（Braver et al.，2009年）。我们根据修订的层次模型（Kroll & Stewart，1994）和认知控制的双重机制（Braver，2012）解释了这些结果，并建议将翻译模型扩展到包括任务变量。（PsycInfo数据库记录（c）2023阿帕，保留所有权利）
Previous research has documented a shift in how language learners process their second language (L2). Initially, they pay attention to how L2 words overlap in their form with words in the native language (L1). With increasing L2 proficiency, language learners are less susceptible to these form-related similarities across translations (Sunderman & Kroll, 2006) and focus on the meaning of words (Talamas et al., 1999). At question in the current study is the extent to which individual differences in cognitive abilities attenuate the translation strategy that less proficient learners use. We hypothesized that L2 learners with stronger proactive control, as indexed by the AX-continuous performance task (AX-CPT), would be less susceptible to form-related interference across translations. Results suggest that, contrary to our hypothesis, participants who rely more on proactive rather than reactive goal maintenance experience increased form-related as well as semantic interference. Translation strategies in recognition appear to be influenced by individual variation in cognitive control and may be sensitive to task conditions (Braver et al., 2009). We interpret these results in light of the Revised Hierarchical Model (Kroll & Stewart, 1994) and the Dual Mechanisms of Cognitive Control (Braver, 2012) and suggest that models of translation be expanded to include task variables.(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved)
