本文描述了四个实验,这些实验证明了阅读言语信息和想象这些信息所描述的空间关系之间的冲突。听同样的信息并没有对可视化产生类似的干扰。阅读和视觉化之间的冲突甚至在受试者之前已经看到了信息的所指对象时也会出现。相反,当受试者被诱导将信息视为死记硬背的单词串,而不是将它们的参照物可视化时,阅读是一种比听力更有效的呈现方式。(a)视觉化和阅读竞争使用专门用于视觉感知的神经通路。(b)阅读的过程阻碍了输入材料转化为任何非言语形式;也就是说,阅读迫使受试者以比听力更纯粹的言语形式处理信息。有人认为,无论解释,这种方法提供了一种手段,调查内部过程的基础上具体的口头指称。
Four experiments are described which demonstrate a conflict between reading verbal messages and imagining the spatial relations described by those messages. Listening to the same messages did not produce comparable interference with visualization. The conflict between reading and visualizing was obtained even when the subject previously had seen the referent of the message. In contrast, when the subject was induced to treat the messages as rote strings of words instead of visualizing their referents, reading was a more effective means of presentation than was listening.Two interpretations of these results were proposed. (a) Visualization and reading compete of the use of neural pathways specialized for visual perception. (b) The process of reading hinders the conversion of input material into any non-verabl form; that is, reading forces the subject to deal with information in a more exclusively verbal form than does listening. It was suggested that regardless of interpretation this method provides a means of investigating the internal processes underlying concrete verbal reference.
