Abstract
Recent studies have demonstrated hysteresis in studies of syntactic choice in language production. These studies further show that the hysteresis effects observed in syntactic choice are similar to the effects observed in motor choice tasks. Here, we examine whether hysteresis can be observed for a different kind of linguistic choice, namely the choice between the spatial demonstratives this and that. We further examine whether these hysteresis effects parallel the hysteresis effects found in a similar motor task. Our results demonstrate hysteresis in both spatial demonstrative choice and motor choice. Nevertheless, there were some effects that appeared in the motor task that did not appear in the language task (e.g., a response time advantage for repeated choices).
最近的研究表明,语言生成中句法选择的研究存在滞后性(例如,Koranda et al., 2020)。Lebkuecher等人(2023)进一步表明,句法选择中的滞后效应与运动选择任务中的效应相似。在这里,我们研究是否可以在另一种语言选择中观察到滞后,即在空间指示词this和that之间的选择。我们进一步研究这些滞后效应是否与类似运动任务中发现的滞后效应平行。我们的研究结果表明空间示范选择和运动选择都存在滞后性。然而,在运动任务中出现了一些在语言任务中没有出现的效应(例如,重复选择的反应时间优势)。
期刊介绍:
Promoting the interests of scientific psychology and its researchers, QJEP, the journal of the Experimental Psychology Society, is a leading journal with a long-standing tradition of publishing cutting-edge research. Several articles have become classic papers in the fields of attention, perception, learning, memory, language, and reasoning. The journal publishes original articles on any topic within the field of experimental psychology (including comparative research). These include substantial experimental reports, review papers, rapid communications (reporting novel techniques or ground breaking results), comments (on articles previously published in QJEP or on issues of general interest to experimental psychologists), and book reviews. Experimental results are welcomed from all relevant techniques, including behavioural testing, brain imaging and computational modelling.
QJEP offers a competitive publication time-scale. Accepted Rapid Communications have priority in the publication cycle and usually appear in print within three months. We aim to publish all accepted (but uncorrected) articles online within seven days. Our Latest Articles page offers immediate publication of articles upon reaching their final form.
The journal offers an open access option called Open Select, enabling authors to meet funder requirements to make their article free to read online for all in perpetuity. Authors also benefit from a broad and diverse subscription base that delivers the journal contents to a world-wide readership. Together these features ensure that the journal offers authors the opportunity to raise the visibility of their work to a global audience.
