本研究考察了词频、搭配频率、母语一致性和二语水平对二语搭配加工的影响。两组以日语为母语的英语学习者(中级和高级)和一组以英语为母语的英语学习者(NS)对四种类型的形容词-名词结构进行了在线可接受性判断任务:(1)一致搭配,(2)仅英语搭配,(3)仅日语搭配,(4)基线项目。响应时间进行了分析,使用混合效应模型和相关性。与NS相比,非母语者(NNSs)处理一致的搭配显着快于英语只搭配。至于频率,所有三组都表现出敏感的词和搭配水平的频率。然而,三组之间的分布不同。我们的结论是,年龄/顺序的收购效果(卡罗尔和白色,1973年)提供了最好的解释一致性的结果。关于频率结果,我们得出的结论是,这些发现与NNS可能与NS不同地处理公式化序列的说法相冲突(例如,Wray,2002,2008)。
This study investigated the effects of word frequency, collocational frequency, L1 congruency, and L2 proficiency, on L2 collocational processing. Two groups of L1 Japanese speakers of English (intermediate and advanced) and one group of English native speakers (NSs) performed an online acceptability judgment task on four types of adjective-noun constructions: (1) congruent collocations, (2) English-only collocations, (3) Japanese-only collocations, and (4) baseline items. Response times were analyzed using mixed-effects modeling and correlations. In contrast to NSs, nonnative speakers (NNSs) processed congruent collocations significantly faster than English-only collocations. As for frequency, all three groups demonstrated sensitivity to both word-level and collocation-level frequency. However, the distributions differed across the three groups. We concluded that age/order of acquisition effects (Carroll & White, 1973) provided the best explanation for the congruency results. Regarding the frequency results, we concluded that the findings conflict with claims that NNSs may process formulaic sequences differently than NSs (e.g., Wray, 2002, 2008).
