提 要

本文旨在探究漢語母語者閱讀由不同因果關聯以及語意關聯所組成之連貫句對時, 連貫關係作用於句對處理之影響。整個實驗透過E-Prime軟體進行, 調查母語者閱讀不同句對時, 其反應在連貫性評估、目標句閱讀時間以及目標句回憶表現的情況與差異。研究結果發現, 首先, 當因果關聯的連貫關係高, 受試者認為該句對較有連貫性, 語意關聯亦是如此。第二, 因果關聯高的句對, 其目標句閱讀時間較短;語意關聯的效果僅在高因果時, 使高語意的目標句閱讀時間較低語意來得快。第三, 受試者閱讀因果關聯和語意關聯皆高的句對時, 其目標句回憶表現較佳。

Abstract

During the reading process, the successful understanding of the text comes from a consistent mental representation (Kintsch, 1988), and mental representation is inseparable from coherence relation (Hobbs, 1979). Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of coherence on the sentence pairs reflected in the reading time, coherence judgment, and recall performance when native Chinese speakers read the four types of coherent sentence pairs. The sentence pairs are composed of high/low causal relatedness and high/low semantic relatedness. The entire research was conducted through E-Prime Professional 2.0.

The research findings are as follows: (1) The main effect of both causal relatedness and semantic relatedness on reading time is significant: causal relatedness, F1 (1, 62) = 94.56, p = 0.000; F2 (1, 62) = 67.95, p = 0.000 (high causal, M = 2,192.62 vs. low causal, M = 3,057.71); semantic relatedness, F1 (1, 62) = 5.31, p = 0.02 (high semantic, M = 2,717.57 vs. low semantic, M = 2,532.77). When sentences have high causal relatedness, high semantic sentence pair is faster than low semantic of the simple main effect (high semantic, M = 2,039.27 vs. low semantic, M = 2,345.98). When sentences have low causal relatedness, high semantic sentence pair is slower than low semantic (high semantic, M = 3,395.87 vs. low semantic, M = 2,719.56). (2) The main effect of both causal relatedness and semantic relatedness on coherence judgment is significant: causal relatedness, F1 (1, 62) = 1,212.66, p = 0.000; F2 (1, 62) = 2,670.82, p = 0.000 (high causal, M = 1.96 vs. low causal, M = 1.17); semantic relatedness, F1 (1, 62) = 58.08, p = 0.000; F2 (1, 62) = 55.684, p = 0.000 (high semantic, M = 1.63 vs. low semantic, M = 1.50). (3) The main effect of both causal relatedness and semantic relatedness on recall performance is significant: causal relatedness, F1 (1, 62) = 70.57, p = 0.000; F2 (1, 62) = 80.363, p = 0.000 (high causal, M = 0.67 vs. low causal, M = 0.52); semantic relatedness, F1 (1, 62) = 93.94, p = 0.000; F2 (1, 62) = 59.460, p = 0.000 (high semantic, M = 0.67 vs. low semantic, M = 0.17). In general, this study shows that semantic relatedness plays an important role just as causal relatedness to judge whether a sentence pair is coherent or not. Also, causal relatedness effectively promotes the processing speed of sentence pairs, while the effect of semantic relatedness is not as strong as causal relatedness. Lastly, both of these coherence relations are beneficial to the quality of the recall performance in terms of short-term memory.
