We examined the influence of print exposure on the body-object interaction (BOI) effect in visual word recognition. High print exposure readers and low print exposure readers either made semantic categorizations ("Is the word easily imageable?"; Experiment 1) or phonological lexical decisions ("Does the item sound like a real English word?"; Experiment 2). The results from Experiment 1 showed that there was a larger BOI effect for the low print exposure readers than for the high print exposure readers in semantic categorization, though an effect was observed for both print exposure groups. However, the results from Experiment 2 showed that the BOI effect was observed only for the high print exposure readers in phonological lexical decision. The results of the present study suggest that print exposure does influence the BOI effect, and that this influence varies as a function of task demands.
我们研究了印刷品暴露对视觉单词识别中身体-物体交互（BOI）效应的影响。高印刷品暴露读者和低印刷品暴露读者分别进行语义分类（“这个单词容易想象出来吗？”；实验1）或语音词汇判断（“这个词听起来像一个真正的英语单词吗？”；实验2）。实验1的结果表明，在语义分类中，低印刷品暴露读者的BOI效应比高印刷品暴露读者更大，尽管两个印刷品暴露组都观察到了这种效应。然而，实验2的结果表明，在语音词汇判断中，只有高印刷品暴露读者观察到了BOI效应。本研究结果表明，印刷品暴露确实会影响BOI效应，而且这种影响会随着任务要求的变化而变化。
