最近的研究调查了婴儿颜色类别的起源,显示出语言前的婴儿即使在没有颜色词的情况下也能对颜色进行分类。这些婴儿类别是相似的,但不完全相同的成人类别,从而产生了一个重要的问题,婴儿的颜色知觉如何改变与学习的颜色词。在这里,我们提出了两个新的范例,其中12个月和19个月大的参与者学习英语作为他们的第一语言进行了评估,对他们的颜色感知,而他们的颜色词理解的数据也被收集。结果表明,参与者的感知颜色接近颜色类别的边界显着改变颜色词学习后。结果突出了从婴儿颜色类别到成人一样的语言介导的颜色类别的转变,伴随着颜色词的学习。研究亮点我们旨在测试婴儿的颜色感知是否是语言介导的。我们使用了新颖的眼动追踪和瞳孔测量范式来测试婴儿学习颜色词的任何一侧的颜色感知。婴儿学习颜色词后对颜色变化的辨别,提出了由于颜色词学习的转变。从语言前的颜色表征语言介导的颜色表征的转变进行了讨论。
Recent work has investigated the origin of infant colour categories, showing pre‐linguistic infants categorise colour even in the absence of colour words. These infant categories are similar but not identical to adult categories, giving rise to an important question about how infant colour perception changes with the learning of colour words. Here we present two novel paradigms in which 12‐ and 19‐month‐old participants learning English as their first language were assessed on their perception of colour, while data on their colour word comprehension were also collected. Results indicate that participants' perception of colours close to the colour category boundaries dramatically change after colour word learning. The results highlight the shift made from infant colour categories to adult‐like linguistically mediated colour categories that accompanies colour word learning.Research HighlightsWe aimed to test whether colour perception is linguistically mediated in infants.We used novel eye‐tracking and pupillometry paradigms to test infant colour perception either side of learning colour words.Infants' discrimination of colour changes after learning colour words, suggesting a shift due to colour word learning.A shift from pre‐linguistic colour representation to linguistically mediated colour representation is discussed.
