Abstract

In linguistics, the referential target of pronouns can shift depending on context, known as “shifting.” Previous research has mainly focused on how contextual factors affect this shift, without exploring whether different perceptual modalities (e.g., visual and auditory) also influence shifting. To address this, the current study used an oddball paradigm to examine the neural dynamics of different pronouns across perceptual modalities. Results showed that in the visual modality, first-person and third-person pronouns differed significantly in neural activity during the N400 window, indicating self-other separation. MVPA results confirmed this separation in ERP and theta signals. In the auditory modality, second-person and third-person pronouns also exhibited significant separation in the N400 window, similar to the visual pattern. In the alpha band, significant separation between second-person and third-person pronouns was observed only in the auditory modality. These findings suggest that shifting effects are influenced by perceptual modalities in addition to context.
模态特性对参考移位影响的神经动力学解码:单变量和多变量脑电图分析
在语言学中,代词的指称目标会随着语境的变化而发生变化,称为“移位”。以前的研究主要集中在环境因素如何影响这种转变,而没有探索不同的感知模式(如视觉和听觉)是否也影响转移。为了解决这个问题,目前的研究使用了一个奇怪的范式来检查不同感知模式下不同代词的神经动力学。结果表明,在视觉模态中,第一人称代词和第三人称代词在N400窗口期间的神经活动存在显著差异,表明自我与他人分离。MVPA结果证实了ERP和theta信号的分离。在听觉情态中,第二人称代词和第三人称代词在N400窗口也表现出明显的分离,与视觉模式相似。在alpha波段,第二人称代词和第三人称代词仅在听觉情态中有显著的分离。这些发现表明,转移效应除了受环境影响外,还受到感知模式的影响。

期刊介绍: An interdisciplinary journal, Brain and Language publishes articles that elucidate the complex relationships among language, brain, and behavior. The journal covers the large variety of modern techniques in cognitive neuroscience, including functional and structural brain imaging, electrophysiology, cellular and molecular neurobiology, genetics, lesion-based approaches, and computational modeling. All articles must relate to human language and be relevant to the understanding of its neurobiological and neurocognitive bases. Published articles in the journal are expected to have significant theoretical novelty and/or practical implications, and use perspectives and methods from psychology, linguistics, and neuroscience along with brain data and brain measures.
