摘要

摘要本研究通过考察母语和二语英语使用者对名词结构(如:研究结果)和论点结构(如:汤姆切面包)的分类,考察他们对结构意义的敏感性。参与者是40名母语为英语的学习者和44名中级水平的汉语L2英语学习者,他们完成了两个在线分类实验。在每个实验中,参与者被要求(i)根据刺激的总体含义对刺激进行分类,(ii)为他们的分类决定提供解释。结果表明,英语使用者对论点结构刺激偏好基于结构的排序,而对名词2刺激偏好基于结构的排序。然而,母语为英语的人在这两种构式类型中都倾向于基于单词的排序。尽管如此,参与者自述的分类解释表明,他们对论点结构结构和名词1 /名词2结构的结构意义很敏感。此外,语言使用者在任务上花费的时间越长,就越有可能产生基于结构的分类。

Investigating the psychological reality of argument structure constructions and N1 of N2 constructions: a comparison between L1 and L2 speakers of English
Abstract This study examined L1 and L2 English speakers’ sensitivity to constructional meaning by investigating their categorization of Noun1 of Noun2 constructions (e.g., results of studies) and argument structure constructions (e.g., Tom cut the bread). Participants were 40 L1 English speakers and 44 intermediate proficiency Chinese-speaking learners of L2 English, who completed two online sorting experiments. In each experiment, participants were instructed to (i) sort the stimuli according to their overall meaning and (ii) provide explanations for their sorting decisions. Results showed that EFL users preferred construction-based sorting for the argument structure stimuli but not the Noun1 of Noun2 stimuli. However, L1 English speakers showed a preference toward word-based sorting for both construction types. Participants’ self-reported explanations for their sorts nonetheless indicated sensitivity to the constructional meanings of argument structure constructions and Noun1 of Noun2 constructions. Additionally, language users were found more likely to produce construction-based sorts with more time spent on the task.

期刊介绍: Cognitive Linguistics presents a forum for linguistic research of all kinds on the interaction between language and cognition. The journal focuses on language as an instrument for organizing, processing and conveying information. Cognitive Linguistics is a peer-reviewed journal of international scope and seeks to publish only works that represent a significant advancement to the theory or methods of cognitive linguistics, or that present an unknown or understudied phenomenon. Topics the structural characteristics of natural language categorization (such as prototypicality, cognitive models, metaphor, and imagery); the functional principles of linguistic organization, as illustrated by iconicity; the conceptual interface between syntax and semantics; the experiential background of language-in-use, including the cultural background; the relationship between language and thought, including matters of universality and language specificity.
