In the present study, we extended the classic picture-word interference paradigm by the presentation of multiple distractor words (Experiment 1) to reexamine whether the word forms of semantic alternatives receive activation in the course of object naming. Experiment 2 showed that phonological facilitation can be magnified by the presentation of multiple words that share overlapping initial and final segments with the target name. Experiments 3 and 4 tested for traces ofnontarget phonological activation with multiple distractors, which enhances the chances of detecting such effects. These experiments revealed a consistent pattern of interference effects induced by words that were related to a semantic category member, consistent with theories assuming phonological activation of nontarget alternatives.
在本研究中，我们通过呈现多个干扰词（实验1）扩展了经典的图片-单词干扰范式，以重新审视语义替代词的词形在物体命名过程中是否会被激活。实验2表明，通过呈现与目标名称共享重叠首段和尾段的多个单词，可以放大语音促进作用。实验3和实验4用多个干扰词测试了非目标语音激活的痕迹，这增加了检测此类效应的机会。这些实验揭示了由与语义类别成员相关的单词所诱发的干扰效应的一致模式，这与假设非目标替代词存在语音激活的理论一致。
