公认的是,像罗马字母表的和形式的异体字(例如,a和A)映射到相同的"抽象字母身份",独立于视觉形式的正交表示。与此相一致的是,在异体字匹配任务中("'a'和'A'是同一个字母吗?"),通过掩蔽字母prime的引发对于视觉上不相似的引发-靶对同样稳健(例如,d和D)和类似的对(例如,c和C)。然而,在原则上,这种启动模式也是一致的可能性,异体字启动是纯粹的语音,基于字母名称。由于同一字母的不同异体字形式,根据定义,共享一个字母名称,因此不可能先验地排除这种可能性。在本研究中,我们调查的影响,共享的字母名称,利用这一事实,日本是写在两个不同的书写系统,音节假名,有两个平行的形式,平假名和片假名和语标汉字。使用异体字匹配任务,我们测试了与目标假名发音相同的汉字素数(例如,特殊字符请参考PDF,都发音为/i/)产生与相反假名形式的假名素数相同量的启动(例如,特殊字符请参阅PDF)。我们发现,假名素数产生更大的启动比语音相同的汉字素数,我们采取的证据表明,异体字启动是基于抽象的假名身份,而不是纯粹的音韵。
It is well-established that allographs like the uppercase and lowercase forms of the Roman alphabet (e.g., a and A) map onto the same “abstract letter identity,” orthographic representations that are independent of the visual form. Consistent with this, in the allograph match task (“Are ‘a’ and ‘A’ the same letter?”), priming by a masked letter prime is equally robust for visually dissimilar prime-target pairs (e.g., d and D) and similar pairs (e.g., c and C). However, in principle this pattern of priming is also consistent with the possibility that allograph priming is purely phonological, based on the letter name. Because different allographic forms of the same letter, by definition, share a letter name, it is impossible to rule out this possibility a priori. In the present study, we investigated the influence of shared letter names by taking advantage of the fact that Japanese is written in two distinct writing systems, syllabic kana—that has two parallel forms, hiragana and katakana—and logographic kanji. Using the allograph match task, we tested whether a kanji prime with the same pronunciation as the target kana (e.g., special characters please refer to PDF, both pronounced /i/) produces the same amount of priming as a kana prime in the opposite kana form (e.g., special characters please refer to PDF). We found that the kana primes produced substantially greater priming than the phonologically identical kanji prime, which we take as evidence that allograph priming is based on abstract kana identity, not purely phonology.
