研究人员通常从大多数类型的快速反应中收集两个相关指标：反应时间和错误比例。最近，实验者使用替代的经验测量来测试词汇理论，例如决策任务中的反应力和命名任务中的反应持续时间。我们提供了一套软件工具，可以扩展命名实验者通常可用的一系列相关测量，包括数字化录音的各种持续时间和强度测量。本文解释了每项措施背后的功能、编程逻辑和理论动机，以及支持数字化命名实验的软件。该软件在带有 SoundBlaster 16 位声卡的 IBM PC 兼容硬件上以 DOS 运行，并利用了硬盘驱动器空间和数字声卡成本不断降低的优势。
Researchers generally collect two dependent measures from most types of speeded responses: reaction time and error proportion. Recently, experimenters have tested lexical theories using alternative empirical measures, such as response force in decision tasks and response duration in naming tasks. We offer a set of software tools that expands the battery of dependent measures normally available to naming experimenters to include various duration and intensity measures of digitized voice recordings. This article explains the functionality, programming logic, and theoretical motivation behind each measure, as well as the software to support digitized naming experiments. The software runs in DOS on IBM-PC-compatible hardware with SoundBlaster 16-bit sound cards, and it takes advantage of the decreasing costs of hard-drive space and digital sound cards.
