摘要

跨语言相似性对第二语言或附加语言中目标类范畴的发展的影响已得到广泛证实。研究还表明,第二语言使用者在处理第二语言语音时,可能会同时使用母语和第二语言词典。43 名加泰罗尼亚语英语学习者完成了一项感知同化任务,评估英语和加泰罗尼亚语元音之间的感知相似性,他们还参加了一项视觉世界眼动跟踪实验,调查语言之间的词汇竞争。研究的重点是英语元音对比/iː/-/ɪ/和/æ/-/ʌ/。知觉任务证实,与英语/ɪ/和/ʌ/相比,英语/iː/和/æ/在知觉上更接近母语加泰罗尼亚语的类别。口语单词识别任务的结果表明,当目标单词包含英语/iː/和/æ/时,学习者会遇到来自母语单词的更大竞争,这说明了这两类任务之间的密切联系。然而,在个体层面上,跨语言词汇竞争程度的差异只与学习者感知到的与母语类别的相似程度有微弱的关系。我们的结论是,在线任务为评估跨语言相似性提供了一种潜在的有效方法,而不会产生传统离线方法所固有的问题。

Online Assessment of Cross-Linguistic Similarity as a Measure of L2 Perceptual Categorization Accuracy
The effect of cross-linguistic similarity on the development of target-like categories in a second or additional language is widely attested. Research also shows that second-language speakers may access both their native and the second-language lexicons when processing second-language speech. Forty-three Catalan learners of English performed a perceptual assimilation task evaluating the perceived similarity between English and Catalan vowels and also participated in a visual world eye-tracking experiment investigating between-language lexical competition. The focus of the study was the English vowel contrasts /iː/-/ɪ/ and /æ/-/ʌ/. The perceptual task confirmed that English /iː/ and /æ/were perceptually closer to native Catalan categories than English /ɪ/ and /ʌ/. The results of the spoken word recognition task indicated that learners experienced greater competition from native words when the target words contained English /iː/ and /æ/, illustrating a close link between the two types of tasks. However, differences in the magnitude of cross-language lexical competition were found to be only weakly related to learners’ degree of perceived similarity to native categories at an individual level. We conclude that online tasks provide a potentially effective method of assessing cross-linguistic similarity without the concerns inherent to more traditional offline approaches.
