汉字识别中的同音字效应:语音影响字形加工的证据

Homophone Effects in the Recognition of Chinese Character: the Evidence of Phonology Influencing the Graphic Processing of Chinese Character

两个实验考察汉字识别中语音对字形加工产生的影响。实验一采用视觉呈现材料的词汇判断法,没有发现如同英语研究中的同音字效应,实验二采用视、听跨通道的实验范式,首先呈现汉字的语音,然后进行视觉的词汇判断,结果发现,当出现的汉字为低频字时,其同音字越多,词汇判断的时间越长。这说明汉字的识别过程中,语音对低频字字形的加工有一定影响。

The homophone effect in the recognition of Chinese character was investigated in 2 lexical - decision experiments. Using the visual lexical - decision task in Experiment 1, the homophone effect was not found. In Experiment 2, a cross - modal lexical - decision task was used and found longer response latencies for low - frequency character that have many homophones than for low - frequency character that have less homophones. The result suggested that phonology play a role in the graphic processing of low - frequency Chinese character.
