The Effect of meaning conceptional network by manual communication on auditory learnin

本研究旨在阐明意义概念结构(意义结构网络)的发展是否会对听觉能力中的言语接受和习得产生影响。被试分为两个深度听力损失组，一组是手动组，儿童在早期生活中引入手语并形成意义概念；另一组是听-口组，儿童先介绍语音和口型，然后再介绍意义。结果如下：1、阅读能力和词汇难度影响意义网络的复杂性。阅读成绩较低的群体在意义网络结构的复杂性上表现较差。2、《日语算术数测验》、《日语早期言语知觉测验》、《环境声音识别测验》每一项测验都对听觉能力进行了不同方面的评价。手动组与听觉口服组之间无显著差异。意义网络结构的复杂性越高，音素结构越有意识，语音的清晰度越好。因此，建立意义结构网络对学习听觉模式和音素更为有效。这一发现在植入人工耳蜗的儿童中得到了证实，这表明意义的结构严重影响了听觉学习。

This study aim to clarify whether the development of meaning conceptual structure (network of meaning structure) effect on speech reception and acquisition in auditory ability. Subjects are composed two profound hearing loss groups, one is the manual group whose children introduce sign language in early life and form their conception of meaning, another is auditory-oral group whose children introduce the "shape of speech" as speech sound and shape of mouth prior to meaning.The results are as follows ;1, The complex of meaning network is effected by reading ability and difficulty of vocabulary. The lower performance group in reading is poor in complexity of meaning network structure.2, It is clear that each test, "Japanese Arithmetic Number Test", "Japanese Early Speech Perception test", "Environmental sound Recognition Test" evaluates different aspect of auditory ability. There is no significant difference between manual group and auditory oral group. As complexity of meaning network structure increase, phoneme structure is more conscious and articulation of speech is better. Also, auditory ability seem to progress.Therefore, it is suggested that establishment of meaning structure network is more effective to learn auditory pattern and phoneme. This find is conformed in cochlear implanted children.It is implied that structure of meaning severely effect on auditory learning.
