本章回顾了最近的证据表明,行动的语言表征是基于镜像神经元系统。第10.2节总结了动作动词和论元结构的主要语义特征,重点是英语,但也考虑了跨语言的多样性。其理论框架是构式语法,认为动作动词出现的论元结构构式构成了表达人类经验基本模式的基本小句模式。例如,句子She sneezed the napkin off the table(她打喷嚏把餐巾从桌子上掉下来)简化了致使运动构式,它具有示意性意义“X导致Y沿着沿着路径Z移动”,而句子She kissed him unconscious(她无意识地吻了他)简化了结果构式,它具有示意性意义“X导致Y变成Z”(Goldberg,1995)。第10.3节讨论了动作动词和论元结构构造的神经解剖学基础。大量的神经影像学和神经心理学研究表明,动作动词的不同语义特性是在镜像神经元系统的不同皮层成分中实现的,特别是在左半球:(1)动词意义的运动方面(例如,由kick指定的动作程序的类型)似乎取决于躯体定位映射的初级运动和前运动区域;(2)动词含义的施事-受事空间交互方面(例如,由kick指定的对象导向路径的类型)看起来取决于躯体定位映射的顶骨区域;以及(3)动词含义的视觉运动方式方面(例如,由踢指定的视觉运动模式)似乎取决于后中颞区。此外,几个神经心理学的研究表明,参数结构建设的意义是在左大脑外侧裂皮层区域,是分开的,但相邻的,那些动词的意义。
This chapter reviews recent evidence that the linguistic representation of action is grounded in the mirror neuron system. Section 10.2 summarizes the major semantic properties of action verbs and argument structure constructions, focusing on English but also considering cross-linguistic diversity. The theoretical framework is Construction Grammar, which maintains that the argument structure constructions in which action verbs occur constitute basic clausal patterns that express basic patterns of human experience. For example, the sentence She sneezed the napkin off the table exemplifies the Caused Motion Construction, which has the schematic meaning “X causes Y to move along path Z,” and the sentence She kissed him unconscious exemplifies the Resultative Construction, which has the schematic meaning “X causes Y to become Z” (Goldberg, 1995). Section 10.3 addresses the neuroanatomical substrates of action verbs and argument structure constructions. A number of neuroimaging and neuropsychological studies are described which suggest that different semantic properties of action verbs are implemented in different cortical components of the mirror neuron system, especially in the left hemisphere: (1) motoric aspects of verb meanings (e.g., the type of action program specified by kick) appear to depend on somatotopically mapped primary motor and premotor regions; (2) agent–patient spatial–interactive aspects of verb meanings (e.g., the type of object-directed path specified by kick) appear to depend on somatotopically mapped parietal regions; and (3) visual manner-of-motion aspects of verb meanings (e.g., the visual movement pattern specified by kick) appear to depend on posterior middle temporal regions. In addition, several neuropsychological studies are described which suggest that the meanings of argument structure constructions are implemented in left perisylvian cortical regions that are separate from, but adjacent to, those for verb meanings.
