Previous reports have demonstrated that the comprehension of sentences describing motion in a particular direction (toward, away, up, or down) is affected by concurrently viewing a stimulus that depicts motion in the same or opposite direction. We report 3 experiments that extend our understanding of the relation between perception and language processing in 2 ways. First, whereas most previous studies of the relation between perception and language processing have focused on visual perception, our data show that sentence processing can be affected by the concurrent processing of auditory stimuli. Second, it is shown that the relation between the processing of auditory stimuli and the processing of sentences depends on whether the sentences are presented in the auditory or visual modality.
先前的报告表明，在理解描述特定方向（朝向、远离、向上或向下）运动的句子时，同时观看描述相同或相反方向运动的刺激会受到影响。我们报告了 3 项实验，从 2 个方面扩展了我们对感知与语言处理之间关系的理解。首先，尽管之前关于感知与语言处理之间关系的大多数研究都集中在视觉感知上，但我们的数据表明，句子处理也会受到同时处理听觉刺激的影响。其次，研究表明，听觉刺激处理与句子处理之间的关系取决于句子是以听觉还是视觉方式呈现的。
