英文摘要 | Whereas a growing body of research demonstrates that people may predict conceptual representations during language comprehension, evidence for phonological prediction is less straightforward. Moreover, existing findings of phonological prediction come largely from studies conducted with languages with alphabetic scripts, making it difficult to dissociate the effects of phonology from orthography. In two experiments, we used the visual world paradigm to investigate whether comprehenders predict phonological information during comprehension of Chinese sentences, where phonology and orthography are largely dissociable. Participants listened to sentences containing a highly predictable word while viewing a visual display consisting of a critical object and three distractors (target object, a semantic competitor object, a phonological competitor object, or an unrelated object). We manipulated preview time (i.e., 2 s in Experiment 1 and 1 s in Experiment 2) to investigate how preview time influences the phonological prediction effect. In addition, we used different stimuli to test the robustness of the results. Results showed anticipatory eye movements for semantic competitors: participants fixated more on the semantic competitors than unrelated objects before the onset of predictable target words. Critically, in the two experiments, the results showed anticipatory fixations on phonological competitor objects. These findings provide clear evidence for the preactivation of both semantic and phonological information in sentence comprehension. Public Significance Statement This study strongly suggests that comprehenders predict both semantic and phonological information during language comprehension. This study highlights the importance of investigating nonalphabetic languages in addition to alphabetic languages. |
