How do skilled Chinese readers, accustomed to characters, process Pinyin, a phonemic transcription of Chinese? Does the orthography of Chinese characters become activated? In four experiments, native speakers first made a meaning judgment on a two-syllable word written in Pinyin. Immediately following, they responded to a character whose orthography sometimes was related to the character corresponding to the Pinyin. In Experiments 1 and 3, participant named the color of the presented characters; there was an interference effect when the presented characters included phonetic radicals that were part of the character corresponding to the Pinyin. In Experiments 2 and 4, participants named the character; naming times were affected if either the semantic or phonetic radical was shared with the character corresponding to the Pinyin. The results indicate that access to lexical representations in Chinese is centered on the orthographic character, even when the input is Pinyin.
习惯使用汉字的熟练中文读者如何处理拼音(一种中文的音素转录)?汉字的拼写会被激活吗?在四项实验中,以中文为母语的人首先对用拼音书写的双音节词进行语义判断。紧接着,他们对一个汉字做出反应,该汉字的拼写有时与对应拼音的汉字相关。在实验1和实验3中,参与者说出所呈现汉字的颜色;当呈现的汉字包含作为对应拼音汉字一部分的声旁时,会产生干扰效应。在实验2和实验4中,参与者读出汉字;如果语义或声旁与对应拼音的汉字相同,读出时间会受到影响。结果表明,即使输入是拼音,中文词汇表征的获取也是以汉字拼写为中心的。
