我们研究了语言作为一个因素在动态空间关系的conciliation，并解决了不同的语言是否可以有不同的影响的运动事件的记忆的问题。在“运动条件”下，说话者必须描述这个人在每个视频中做了什么，而在“颜色条件”下，说话者只需要描述他们在视频中注意到的颜色。当被要求直接描述它们时（与颜色条件相比），英语发言者表现出更好的运动事件识别，西班牙语发言者在这两种条件下表现相同，他们的表现与英语发言者在颜色条件下的表现相似。我们讨论了这些结果的语言处理和记忆的事件的影响。
We studied language as a factor in the construal of dynamic spatial relations, and addressed the question of whether different languages can have different effects on memory of motion events. In the “motion condition”, speakers had to describe what the person did in each video, while in the “colour condition”, speakers had to describe only the colours they noticed in the clips. English speakers showed better recognition of the motion event when asked to describe them directly (compared with the colour condition), and Spanish speakers performed equally on both conditions, with their performance being similar to the English speaker’s performance on the colour condition. We discuss the implications of these results for language processing and for memory of events.
