“注意”对大学生头韵词块记忆的影响

The Effect of "Noticing" on Chinese College Students' Memorization of English Alliterative Chunks

文章基于"注意假说"和"头韵策略",通过两个实验探讨"注意"对中国大学生头韵词块记忆的影响。笔者采用定性分析和定量分析相结合的研究方法,选取兰州大学2007级50名非英语专业本科生为实验对象进行实验。数据分析结果表明:学习者自己注意不到短语中的头韵现象;而通过引导学习者注意这种现象能够强化其对短语的即时记忆。

Based on Schmidt＇s ＂noticing hypothesis＂ and Boers and Lindstromberg＇s ＂alliteration strategy＂,the author of the current paper attempts to analyze the effect of noticing on Chinses college students＇ memorization of English alliterative chunks through two experiments.50 non-English major undergraduates from Lanzhou University are involved in the experiments,and a combination of qualitative and quantitative research methods are used to anaylze the data,which show that the students cannot notice alliteration without instruction,and also that directing learners＇ attention to alliteration in lexical chunks can enhance their immediate memorization.
