Participants were asked to generate as many words as possible using large and small category sizes with the initial letter and semantic category search strategies. The production of each participant for each 15-s time slice on each task was recorded. The results revealed that on all fluency tasks, the production in the initial time slice was highest and also of greatest frequency. As time on task increased the production decreased, as did the word frequency of the items produced. The results are consistent with the notion that there is a store of high-frequency words accessed during the early trials of the fluency tasks and as this store becomes exhausted the production and the word frequency decreases.
参与者被要求使用大小类别规模以及首字母和语义类别搜索策略尽可能多地生成单词。记录了每个参与者在每个任务的每个15秒时间片段中的生成情况。结果显示,在所有流畅性任务中,初始时间片段中的生成量最高且频率也最高。随着任务时间的增加,生成量减少,所生成项目的词频也减少。这些结果与这样一种观点一致,即在流畅性任务的早期试验中会访问一个高频词库,随着这个词库被耗尽,生成量和词频都会下降。
