项目摘要

Countries host many workers who are non-native speakers of the local language. Students from diverse international backgrounds attend class in a non-native tongue. Business people commonly use a foreign language as they travel around the globe, expanding their markets and collaborations. The goal of this research is to investigate how people understand non-native speakers and to examine the implications for communication between native and non-native speakers. The investigators will test whether people use different strategies when trying to understand a non-native speaker than a native speaker. For example, when people understand non-native speakers they pay less attention to what is actually said, and more attention to the situation surrounding the communication. This has implications for how well people remember what is said, how likely they are to reach an agreement, and how they perceive the speaker's motives and intentions.This research project will focus on the psychological mechanisms that people naturally use when they communicate. It could lead to discoveries in a wide variety of domains with important interpersonal and societal implications. For instance, in education it could help account for difficulties faced by non-native English speakers in school, or difficulties that non-native teachers encounter; in the legal domain it may provide insight into how the testimony of non-native witnesses is understood and misunderstood; in the medical domain it should have implications for effective communication between physicians and patients, or among physicians, when one of them is a non-native speaker of the language. In general, insight into how people understand each other could provide critical contributions to society by improving communication and reducing conflict between speakers with different native tongues.This work is co-funded by SBE/BCS and the Office of International Science and Engineering
许多国家的工人都不是以当地语言为母语的。来自不同国际背景的学生用非母语上课。商务人士在全球各地旅行时通常使用一门外语,以扩大他们的市场和合作。这项研究的目的是调查人们如何理解非母语者,并考察其对母语者和非母语者之间的交流的影响。研究人员将测试人们在试图理解非母语人士和母语人士时是否使用不同的策略。例如,当人们理解非母语人士时,他们较少关注实际所说的话,而更多地关注交流周围的情况。这对人们记住所说的话有多好,他们达成协议的可能性有多大,以及他们如何感知演讲者的动机和意图。这项研究项目将专注于人们在交流时自然使用的心理机制。它可能导致在具有重要的人际和社会影响的广泛领域的发现。例如,在教育领域,它可以帮助解释非英语母语者在学校面临的困难,或非母语教师遇到的困难;在法律领域,它可以帮助我们深入了解非母语证人的证词是如何被理解和误解的;在医学领域,它应当对医生和病人之间或医生之间的有效沟通产生影响,当其中一人是非母语者时。总体而言,洞察人们如何理解彼此可以通过改善沟通和减少母语不同的人之间的冲突来为社会做出重要贡献。这项工作由SBE/BCS和国际科学与工程办公室共同资助
