摘要
使用网络科学工具,可以将说话人已知的数千种语音词形组织成词汇网络。在这些网络中,节点代表单词,而边缘则位于相邻语音之间。以往的研究表明,各种语言的语音网络具有相似的宏观网络属性。本研究旨在探讨不同语言的语音网络是否也具有相似的中观层面特性,特别是是否存在稳健的群落结构。先前的群落检测分析表明,英语具有稳健的群落结构。对法语、德语、荷兰语和西班牙语网络进行的群落检测分析表明,所有网络都显示出强烈的群落结构证据--词形的中观聚类,即较大的群落往往包含较短的、频繁出现的、有许多相邻音素的词。同一群体的词往往具有相似的音素结构。研究结果表明,语言中语音词形的组织受类似原则的支配,这些原则可能对词汇加工有重要影响。(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, 版权所有)。
Evidence of community structure in phonological networks of multiple languages.
Thousands of phonological word forms known to a speaker can be organised as a lexical network using the tools of network science. In these networks, nodes represent words and edges are placed between phonological neighbours. Previous work has shown that phonological networks of various languages have similar macrolevel network properties. The present study aimed to investigate if phonological networks of different languages also have similar mesolevel properties, specifically, the presence of robust community structure. Prior community detection analyses revealed robust community structure for English. Community detection analyses conducted on French, German, Dutch, and Spanish networks indicate that all networks showed strong evidence of community structure-mesolevel clustering of word forms whereby larger communities tended to contain shorter, frequent words with many phonological neighbours. Words of the same community tended to share similar phonotactic structures. Results suggest that the organisation of phonological word forms in language are governed by similar principles that could have important implications for lexical processing.

期刊介绍:
The Canadian Journal of Experimental Psychology publishes original research papers that advance understanding of the field of experimental psychology, broadly considered. This includes, but is not restricted to, cognition, perception, motor performance, attention, memory, learning, language, decision making, development, comparative psychology, and neuroscience. The journal publishes - papers reporting empirical results that advance knowledge in a particular research area; - papers describing theoretical, methodological, or conceptual advances that are relevant to the interpretation of empirical evidence in the field; - brief reports (less than 2,500 words for the main text) that describe new results or analyses with clear theoretical or methodological import.
