Abstract: This study explored the effect of different semantic radical positions and transparency on the semantic activation of Chinese phonogram in semantic related judgment task by eye-tracking. The results showed that the accuracy rate, reaction time and fixation times of the phonogram with the left and upper position of semantic radicals were higher, but the average fixation time was longer. The transparent phonograms had shorter reaction time, higher accuracy, and fewer fixation times. Moreover, the position and functional attributes of semantic radicals played an important interaction in Chinese phonogram recognition. When the semantic radicals’ location was on the left and on the upper, the recognition time of transparent phonogram was faster than that of opaque phonogram. The present study confirmed that the skilled Chinese readers have orthographic awareness of “the semantic radical represent the meaning”.

摘要: 通过眼动技术,采用语义相关判断任务,探究不同义符位置与语义透明度对形声字语义激活的影响。结果发现,义符位置在左、在上比义符位置在右、在下的形声字正确率更高,反应时更短,注视次数更少但平均注视时间更长;透明形声字比不透明形声字正确率更高,反应时更短,注视次数更少。义符位置和功能属性在形声字语义激活中具有显著的相互作用,表现为义符在左和在上时,透明形声字的识别速度快于不透明形声字,且读者采取减少注视次数、增加单次平均注视时间的加工策略。研究结果进一步证实熟练汉语读者存在“义符释义”的正字法意识。
