Abstract

In this study we examined uses of the number 3017 as a neologism by members of an online forum. 3017 has a number of factors working against its success as a neologism, but its use grew dramatically over the course of six years. Statistical analyses showed that the growth data were very well modeled by both a quadratic and a sigmoid curve. The form was used primarily as an adjective and to a lesser extent as a noun over the first 500 days, before verbal forms came to dominate. To understand the structure of the 3017 concept in the mental lexicons of users, we examine attempts to define the term, and disagreements and negotiations about what the term does and does not include. Finally, we include examples of users’ creativity and productivity with the form, including readily-understood jokes.

3017

在这项研究中，我们调查了在线论坛成员使用数字3017作为新词的情况。3017作为一个新词有很多因素阻碍它的成功，但在过去的六年里，它的使用急剧增长。统计分析表明，增长数据可以很好地用二次曲线和s型曲线来建模。在动词形式占主导地位之前，在最初的500天里，这种形式主要用作形容词，在较小程度上用作名词。为了理解3017概念在用户心理词汇中的结构，我们研究了定义该术语的尝试，以及关于该术语包含什么和不包含什么的分歧和协商。最后，我们在表单中加入了用户创造力和生产力的示例，包括易于理解的笑话。

We encourage both the submission of original research and reviews of significant new developments in the understanding of the mental lexicon. The journal publishes work that includes, but is not limited to the following: Models of the representation of words in the mind Computational models of lexical access and production Experimental investigations of lexical processing Neurolinguistic studies of lexical impairment. Functional neuroimaging and lexical representation in the brain Lexical development across the lifespan Lexical processing in second language acquisition The bilingual mental lexicon Lexical and morphological structure across languages Formal models of lexical structure Corpus research on the lexicon New experimental paradigms and statistical techniques for mental lexicon research.
