在两个涉及汉字识别的启动命名实验中,一个是以汉语为母语的被试,另一个是以粤语为母语的被试,我们改变了刺激起始相似性(SOA)和启动目标相似性沿着不同的词汇维度。实验结果表明:(1)在不同的SOA中,相对较强和可靠的语义启动出现得很早,并且其启动不受意义精确性的影响;(2)同音词启动对目标命名的影响可以忽略不计,或者这种影响出现得相对较晚(仅在57 msec时);(3)图形抑制在不同的SOA中存在。由于采用了与Perfetti和Tan(1998)研究相同的刺激和程序,本研究结果对他们的研究结果的可靠性和有效性提出了质疑,这些研究结果被用来支持语音是字符识别的组成要素,并且在识别过程中先于意义通达的概念。相反,目前的研究结果表明,语音是可选的访问中熟练的成人读者汉字识别的意义。
In two primed-naming experiments involving Chinese character recognition, one with native Mandarin-speaking subjects and another with native Cantonese-speaking subjects, we varied both the stimulus onset asynchrony (SOA) and the prime-target similarity along various lexical dimensions. Across both experiments, the results were as follows: (1) Relatively strong and reliable semantic priming appeared very early across various SOAs, and its onset was not affected by meaning precision, (2) either homophonic priming had negligible effects on target naming or the effects appeared relatively late (only at 57 msec), and (3) graphic inhibition was found across different SOAs. Since the same set of stimuli and procedure were adopted as those in the study of Perfetti and Tan (1998), the present findings raise questions about the reliability and validity of the results from their study that have been used to support the notion that phonology is a constitutive element of character recognition and precedes meaning access in the identification process. Instead, the present results suggest that phonology is optional for accessing meaning in Chinese character recognition among skilled adult readers.
