单词的正字法邻域对单词识别过程的影响是什么?Andrews(1989)报道了大型社区促进词汇获取(邻里规模效应)。Grainger, O'Regan, Jacobs, & Segui(1989)报道,频率较高的邻居抑制词汇访问(“邻居频率效应”)。因为邻域大小和邻域频率通常是共变的(具有较大邻域的单词通常具有较高频率的邻域),所以这些发现似乎相互矛盾。在本研究中,6个邻域大小和邻域频率影响的实验表明,至少对于低频词,大邻域确实有利于加工。然而,高频邻居的存在似乎促进而不是抑制处理。讨论了这些发现对词汇获取的串行和并行模型的影响。
What are the effects of a word's orthographic neighborhood on the word recognition process? Andrews (1989) reported that large neighborhoods facilitate lexical access (the neighborhood size effect). Grainger, O'Regan, Jacobs, & Segui (1989) reported that higher frequency neighbors inhibit lexical access (the ''neighborhood frequency effect''). Because neighborhood size and neighborhood frequency typically covary (words with large neighborhoods will usually possess higher frequency neighbors), these findings would seem to contradict one another. In the present study, 6 experiments on the effects of neighborhood size and neighborhood frequency indicated that, at least for low-frequency words, large neighborhoods do facilitate processing. However, the existence of higher frequency neighbors seems to facilitate rather than inhibit processing. The implications of these findings for serial and parallel models of lexical access are discussed.
