Abstract

A 'priming lexical decision task' and a 'self-paced reading task' were conducted to investigate the representation in the mental lexicon of Korean prefinal endings. We observed the extent to which prefinal endings are likely to have their own representation in the lexicon according to three factors: 'type of prefinal ending,' 'frequency of the stem,' and 'frequency of conjunction between prefinal endings and final endings,' and found that prefinal endings with high-frequency stems were significantly more likely to have their own representation than those with low-frequency stems. The type of prefinal ending and the frequency of conjunction between prefinal endings and final endings had no significant effect on the likelihood of being represented independently, and the entire conjugation was more likely to be represented. The experimental results suggest that Korean speakers' mental lexicon has a dual structure of a surface lexicon and a deep lexicon, in which all lexical conjugations are stored in the surface lexicon, and some conjugations containing high-frequency stems are separated into stems and endings and stored in the deep lexicon, where they function as objects of reference.

韩国语前置词尾在心理词典中的表征

我们进行了一项 "引导词汇决定任务 "和一项 "自定步调阅读任务"，以研究韩语前置词尾在心理词典中的表征。我们根据三个因素观察了前置词尾在词库中的表征程度：我们发现，高频词干的前置词尾拥有自己的表征的可能性明显高于低频词干的前置词尾。前置词尾的类型以及前置词尾和词尾之间的连词频率对独立表征的可能性没有显著影响，而整个连词更有可能被表征。实验结果表明，韩国语者的心理词典具有表层词典和深层词典的双重结构，其中所有的词汇连接词都存储在表层词典中，而一些含有高频词干的连接词则被分离成词干和词尾，存储在深层词典中，作为参照对象发挥作用。

期刊介绍： Aim The aim of Morphology is to publish high quality articles that contribute to the further articulation of morphological theory and linguistic theory in general, or present new and unexplored data. Relevant empirical evidence for the theoretical claims in the articles will be provided by in-depth analyses of specific languages or by comparative, cross-linguistic analyses of the relevant facts. The sources of data can be grammatical descriptions, corpora of data concerning language use and other naturalistic data, and experiments. Scope Morphology publishes articles on morphology proper, as well as articles on the interaction of morphology with phonology, syntax, and semantics, the acquisition and processing of morphological information, the nature of the mental lexicon, and morphological variation and change. Its main focus is on formal models of morphological knowledge, morphological typology (the range and limits of variation in natural languages), the position of morphology in the architecture of the human language faculty, and the evolution and change of language. In addition, the journal deals with the acquisition of morphological knowledge and its role in language processing. Articles on computational morphology and neurolinguistic approaches to morphology are also welcome. The first volume of Morphology appeared as Volume 16 (2006). Previous volumes were published under the title Yearbook of Morphology.
