许多关于工作记忆的说法都提出了专门的存储机制来维护串行顺序。我们探索一种替代方案，即通过语言生成架构中的临时激活来实现维护。四项实验检验了语音相似效应在多大程度上可以被解释为词汇下语音错误。语音相似的非单词刺激被用来创建绕口令或控制材料，用于四个任务：大声朗读、立即口头回忆、立即打字回忆和序列识别。使用了工作记忆（回忆准确性）和语言产生（言语错误）领域的相关测量。尽管列表除了项目顺序之外都是相同的，但仍观察到绕口令的强大效果。语音错误分析表明，错误最好被描述为音素而不是项目排序错误。所有实验中语音错误的分布都具有可比性，并表现出音节位置效应，这表明生产过程中发挥着重要作用。讨论了对工作记忆和语言产生的影响。 (C) 2009 年，爱思唯尔公司出版。
Many accounts of working memory posit specialized storage mechanisms for the maintenance of serial order. We explore an alternative, that maintenance is achieved through temporary activation in the language production architecture. Four experiments examined the extent to which the phonological similarity effect can be explained as a sublexical speech error. Phonologically similar nonword stimuli were ordered to create tongue twister or control materials used in four tasks: reading aloud, immediate spoken recall, immediate typed recall, and serial recognition. Dependent measures from working memory (recall accuracy) and language production (speech errors) fields were used. Even though lists were identical except for item order, robust effects of tongue twisters were observed. Speech error analyses showed that errors were better described as phoneme rather than item ordering errors. The distribution of speech errors was comparable across all experiments and exhibited syllable-position effects, suggesting an important role for production processes. Implications for working memory and language production are discussed. (C) 2009 Published by Elsevier Inc.
