语音短时记忆与词汇习得的动态关系 ——来自中国英语学习者的证据

论文摘要

本研究以中国英语学习者为被试,探讨语音短时记忆能力与外语词汇习得的动态变化关系。107名三年级、八年级和大一学生参加了实验。结果表明,对于英语初学者而言,语音短时记忆对外语词汇习得具有较强的预测作用。而随着学习者词汇量的扩大,对英语熟悉度的增加,长时语音和词汇-语义知识开始对词汇习得具有一定的预测力,但语音短时记忆的预测力仍旧是最强的。对于熟练英语学习者而言,长时语音和词汇语义知识成为唯一能预测词汇习得的因素。因此,语音短时记忆与词汇习得之间是一种互相促进的关系:语音回路能够促进初学者新词汇语音形式的学习,而不断积累的语音和词汇语义知识能补充不完善的语音表征并促进熟练英语学习者的新词汇学习。
