中文摘要
本實驗目的在探討提供語法標誌線索的「連接詞」對讀者整合訊息以及處理的歷程。實驗一以 眼動探討兩個問題:(一)訊息對立程度與連接詞「但是」的關係,(二)讀者處理連接詞訊 息是符合延遲整合假設或是逐漸整合方式。結果顯示連接詞對讀者閱讀是有幫助的,且讀者需 要花較長的時間處理句子對立關係高的句子。讀者對句子訊息的處理似乎是以逐漸整合的方 式。實驗二加入另一有連接詞「因為」的篇章,結果同實驗一,再次顯示閱讀時不是在句子結 束才整合。綜合結果,本研究肯定連接詞在閱讀中的助益,而處理歷程是逐步整合語詞,而不 是延遲整合。
英文摘要
Two experiments examined the effect of connectives in sentence and text reading. The arguments about the role of connectives are between delayed integration hypothesis and incremental interpretation. According to delayed integration hypothesis, readers process two clauses linked by a connective by interpreting each clause separately and combining them when they reach the end of the second clause. However, incremental interpretation considers semantic processing takes place incrementally. In the first experiment, readers’ eye movements were monitored as they read sentences containing adversative connectives “but” with different clausal semantic relatedness. The results showed readers spent more processing time on clauses with less semantic relatedness. Connectives helped reader integrating clausal semantic information. There was no interaction between clausal semantic relatedness and connectives. Moreover, readers’ first gaze duration on the end of second clause was not longer than any other content words. It seemed to indicate readers didn’t integrate clauses at the end of the second clause. Readers integrated words incrementally. In the second experiment, both adversative and causal connectives were inserted in texts. The incremental interpretation was also observed. These experiments support that connectives facilitate reading and readers integrate semantic units incrementally.
