外语单词记忆中信息整合的认知研究

A Cognitive Study of the Information Integration in Foreign Word Retentions

记忆单词是外语学习中的主要任务之一,本研究通过对388名英语专业的大二学生进行不同量级的信息输入实验,并对其中60名学生进行有声思维调查,发现了影响外语单词记忆的主要因素,分析了不同信息的输入对外语单词记忆效果的不同影响,探讨了外语单词记忆中输入信息整合的认知过程及其特点。

Vocabulary memorization is one of the most important tasks in learning a foreign language. This paper reports the results of a series of experiments conducted on 388 sophomore English majors in their vocabulary learning as well as the results of 66 think aloud protocols by the subjects. The paper finds that among the major factors underlying vocabulary learning different factors contribute differently to short-term and long-term word retentions, and that different input information is integrated differently in word retrieval.
