有很多经验证据表明,词汇的相对可想象性和体-物交互作用(BOI)促进了具体名词的词汇加工(如Bennett等人)。这些发现与基础认知框架(如Barsalou)一致,其中感觉运动知识是词汇加工的组成部分。在本研究中,我们考察了词汇加工是否也对情感体验的维度敏感(即,词汇唤起情感体验的难易程度),这也源于一个扎根的认知框架。研究了情感体验、可想象性和BOI对具体和抽象名词语义分类的影响。我们的研究结果表明,对于具体名词,情感体验与较不准确的分类相关,而可想象性和BOI与更快和更准确的分类相关。对于抽象名词,情感体验与更快、更准确的分类相关,而BOI与更慢、更不准确的分类相关。即使在统计上控制了许多其他词汇和语义维度的情况下,也可以观察到这种结果模式。这些发现与Vigliocco等人的语义表征理论一致,该理论认为情感知识是抽象概念意义的基础,而感觉运动知识是具体概念意义的基础。
There is much empirical evidence that words’ relative imageability and body-object interaction (BOI) facilitate lexical processing for concrete nouns (e.g., Bennett et al.,). These findings are consistent with a grounded cognition framework (e.g., Barsalou,), in which sensorimotor knowledge is integral to lexical processing. In the present study, we examined whether lexical processing is also sensitive to the dimension of emotional experience (i.e., the ease with which words evoke emotional experience), which is also derived from a grounded cognition framework. We examined the effects of emotional experience, imageability, and BOI in semantic categorization for concrete and abstract nouns. Our results indicate that for concrete nouns, emotional experience was associated with less accurate categorization, whereas imageability and BOI were associated with faster and more accurate categorization. For abstract nouns, emotional experience was associated with faster and more accurate categorization, whereas BOI was associated with slower and less accurate categorization. This pattern of results was observed even with many other lexical and semantic dimensions statistically controlled. These findings are consistent with Vigliocco et al.’s theory of semantic representation, which states that emotional knowledge underlies meanings for abstract concepts, whereas sensorimotor knowledge underlies meanings for concrete concepts.
