虽然英语通常被认为是一种按字母顺序书写的语言，但也有一些是按表意文字书写的，例如，数字可以用两种形式书写（1或ONE）。本实验表明，这些文字形式在理解任务中产生差异。当要求正常受试者判断同时显示的两个数字中哪一个是数字时，数字物理尺寸上较大的、不相关的变化对按表意字母打印的数字的响应时间有影响，而按字母顺序打印的数字则没有影响。这些结果，再加上神经心理学上的观察，即那些有失语症但不识字的患者在用表意文字书写数字时能说出他们的名字，但在用字母书写数字时却严重受损，这表明这些不同的文字形式涉及不同的处理机制。
Although English is generally considered an alphabetically written language some of it is written ideographically, e.g., numbers can be written in both forms of script (1 or ONE). The present experiments demonstrate that these script forms yield differences in a comprehension task. When normal subjects are asked to judge which of 2 simultaneously displayed numbers is numerically the larger, irrelevant variations in the physical size of the numbers influence response time when the numbers are printed ideographically, but not when they are printed alphabetically. These results, coupled with the neuropsychological observation that patients who are alexic but not agraphic can name numbers when they are written ideographically but are greatly impaired when the numbers are written alphabetically, suggests that these different script forms engage different processing mechanisms.
