情感神经语言学:神经语言学的情感转向

Affective Neurolinguistics:An Affective Turn in Neurolinguistics

传统的语言理解模型一般忽视情感。但近年来的研究表明,语言与情感彼此联系,相互影响。神经语言学俨然出现情感转向,情感神经语言学也应运而生。首先,本文从3个方面分析该转向的动因,包括"以单模态为基点"的理论框架的不足、情感与认知交互研究的蓬勃发展、语言研究中经验主义研究传统的崛起。其次,构建一个较全面的情感神经语言学研究框架,以对Hinojosa等(2019)提出的框架进行补充。最后,展望未来的研究方向。

Generally, traditional models for language comprehension ignore the affect. However, recent studies have demonstrated that language and affect are closely interwoven. It seems that neurolinguistics is facing an affective turn, which sprouts a new discipline: affective neurolinguistics. This paper first analyzed the motivations for this turn, including the deficiency in theoretical frameworks based on the single modality, the exuberance of the affect-cognition interaction studies, and the rise of empiricism research tradition in language research. Furthermore, the paper tentatively constructed a more comprehensive framework for the study of affective neurolinguistics, providing a supplement to the framework proposed by Hinojosa et al.(2019). Finally, the development trends were discussed.
