中国英语学习者框架语块心理现实性研究

A Study on the Psychological Reality of Chinese English Learners’ Frame Chunks

摘要: 本研究采用在线可接受性判断任务，以具体语块为切入点，考察中国英语学习者框架语块的心理现实性问题。研究发现学习者语块加工中具有类符频率效应，但该效应受到形符频率的显著调节作用，这表明二语框架语块具有心理现实性，且框架语块并非独立于其构成元素储存在心理词库中。研究结果有助于理解中国英语学习者如何通过接触和处理不同类型频率的语块来构建和扩展其心理词库。

Abstract: By utilizing an online acceptability judgment task and using specific multi-word chunks as research stimuli, this study investigated the psychological reality of Chinese English learners’ frame chunks. The findings revealed that Chinese English learners exhibited a type frequency effect in the processing of frame chunks, but this effect was significantly moderated by the token frequency, indicating that frame chunks have psychological reality and are not stored in the mental lexicon independently of their constituent elements. The results contribute to the understanding of how Chinese English learners construct and expand their mental lexicon by exposure to multi-word chunks of different frequency types.
