Abstract: The influence of the related degree of a polysemous word′s meanings on the lexical decision times was explored. The results showed that the relatedness of a polysemous word′s meanings did not affect the Chinese two-character word lexical decision time.The polysemous word produced the faster lexical decision time than the time of nonpolysemous word in low frequency words. The possible explanation was suggested.

Key words: relatedness of meaning, polysemous word, lexical decision

摘要： 采用词汇判断法,考察双字多义词各意义间的联系程度对词汇判断时间的影响,同时考察,意义间联系程度不同的多义词与单义词的词汇判断时间的关系。实验结果表明：汉语中双字多义词意义间联系程度的高低没有对多义词词汇判断的时间产生影响。在低频词的条件下,双字多义词,不管其意义间联系程度的高低,词汇判断的时间都快于单义词的判断时间,这表明汉语词汇识别中,存在低频多义词的识别优势效应。
