摘要

在一个强制选择鼠标跟踪范例中,以肯定和否定的形式测试了真实和虚假的陈述(从非常真实,到模棱两可,到非常错误)。复制先前的研究,老鼠的轨迹揭示了真实和虚假陈述连续体的微妙差异。然而,否定会改变这个过程,特别是对于非常真实的陈述(例如,面包不是用沙子做的)。老鼠的轨迹在否定句中更加弯曲,真理连续体的终点(非常正确和非常错误的陈述)在曲线下的面积最大。提出的解释是,像“Gummie bears are not alive”这样的否定语句的语用意义是不恰当的,而“People live on Earth”这样的真实语句是恰当的。这项研究揭示了处理这些陈述的在线动态和可能的混乱,特别是当非常真实的陈述包含否定时。

Negation Polarizes Agreement Dynamics During Sentence Comprehension
Abstract In a forced-choice mouse-tracking paradigm, true and false statements (ranging from very true, to ambiguous, to very false) were tested in both affirmative and negated forms. Replicating prior research, mouse trajectories reveal subtle differences in a continuum of true to false statements. However, negation modifies this process, particularly for very true statements (i.e. Bread is not made from sand). The mouse trajectories were more curved with negated sentences, with end-points of the continuum of truth (very true and very false statements) having the greatest area under the curve. The proposed explanation is the pragmatic meaning of a negated statement such as “Gummie bears are not alive” is infelicitous, whereas a true statement “People live on Earth” is felicitous. This study reveals the online dynamics of processing these statements and possible confusion, particularly when very true statements contain a negation.
