- 认知科学 认知科学
- 获得第二语言的学习.
背景情况:
- 了解影响双语者自愿语言选择的因素对于心理语言学至关重要.
- 之前的研究表明,任务难度可能会影响语言选择,但预辞处理的具体作用仍然不清楚.
研究的目的:
- 调查预期的命名困难,通过图像退化操纵,是否会影响L2英语使用者的语言选择和切换行为.
- 为了测试假设,增加的前言难度导致非主导语言 (英语) 的更大使用和减少语言切换.
主要方法:
- 三项实验涉及荷兰语和印尼语的母语使用者,他们进行了在线图片命名任务,并自由选择语言.

Language and Cognition
716
Language serves as a bridge between ideas and communication, influencing how individuals perceive and interact with the world. Psychologists have long debated whether language shapes thought or vice versa. This discussion gained grip with Edward Sapir and Benjamin Lee Whorf in the 1940s, who proposed that language determines thought, a concept known as linguistic determinism. They suggested that the vocabulary and structure of a language influence how its speakers think and perceive reality.

Lateralization
968
Brain lateralization refers to the division of mental processes and functions between the two hemispheres of the brain, a phenomenon that optimizes neural efficiency and underpins complex abilities in humans. This specialization allows each hemisphere to perform tasks where it has a comparative advantage, facilitating more refined cognitive capabilities across different domains.

Language Development
853
Children master language quickly and with relative ease, supported by both biological predisposition and reinforcement. B. F. Skinner (1957) proposed that language is learned through reinforcement, while Noam Chomsky (1965) argued that language acquisition mechanisms are biologically determined.
The critical period for language acquisition suggests that the ability to acquire language is at its peak early in life. As people age, this proficiency decreases. Language development begins very...

Higher Mental Functions of the Brain: Language
3.5K
Language is a system of communication that allows the expression of thoughts, ideas, and feelings. The brain processes language in both hemispheres.
Language formation and comprehension take place in the dominant hemisphere. The dominant hemisphere is responsible for understanding the meaning of spoken, written, or sign language, as well as the ability to communicate. For most people, the left hemisphere is the dominant one. The right hemisphere, then, gives tone and emotional context to the...
