在一项阅读过程中的眼动追踪实验中，我们研究了如果当前注视的单词是间隔复合词的第二个组成部分，那么是否可以从该单词右侧的两个单词观察到预览益处。边界范式（Rayner，1975）用于正交操纵参与者是否看到第一个的身份或非单词预览（例如，泰迪）和第二组分（例如，bear）指位于边界之外的间隔复合词，分别是词n + 1和n + 2。线性混合效应模型显示，参与者获得了n + 2预览的好处，当他们看到单词n + 2的身份预览时，他们花在单词n + 1上的时间更少。然而，只有当单词n + 1也有同一性预览时，才能观察到这种效应。我们的研究结果表明，在自然阅读过程中，间隔复合词的两个组成词作为一个更大的词汇单位的一部分被加工。
In an eye tracking experiment during reading we examined whether preview benefit could be observed from 2 words to the right of the currently fixated word if that word was the 2nd constituent of a spaced compound. The boundary paradigm (Rayner, 1975) was used to orthogonally manipulate whether participants saw an identity or nonword preview of the 1st (e.g., teddy) and 2nd constituent (e.g., bear) of a spaced compound located immediately beyond the boundary, respectively, words n + 1 and n + 2. Linear mixed-effects models revealed that participants gained an n + 2 preview benefit, such that they spent less time fixated on word n + 1 when given an identity preview of word n + 2. However, this effect was only observed if there was also an identity preview of word n + 1. Our findings suggest that the 2 constituent words of spaced compounds are processed as part of a larger lexical unit during natural reading.
