研究双语者处理绕路句时抑制控制的作用，发现中英差异显著。
The role of inhibitory control in garden-path sentence processing: A Chinese-English bilingual perspective
- 通过自定进度阅读任务，考察抑制控制在双语绕路句理解中的作用。
- 中文绕路句恢复不受抑制控制影响，英文学习者则与语言水平交互作用。
- 建议用母语颜色词斯特鲁普任务测量双语者的抑制控制能力。
阅读绕路句时，人们需解决竞争性解释，尽管初始误读可能持续存在。本研究探讨抑制控制（IC）在汉语-英语双语者管理此类误读中的作用。通过自定进度阅读任务，研究了抑制控制如何影响汉语（母语）的绕路句恢复，并考察其与英语（第二语言）熟练度的交互作用。结果显示，抑制控制不影响汉语绕路句的恢复，表明语义上下文可能降低了对抑制控制的需求；而在英语第二语言学习者中，抑制控制与语言熟练度存在复杂关系：低熟练度但高抑制控制者仍存在持续误读，而高熟练度者则无此现象。结果支持并扩展了认知控制模型（Ness et al., 2023）。此外，三种斯特鲁普任务版本的比较表明，母语颜色词斯特鲁普任务是双语研究中测量抑制控制的优选方法。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
In reading garden-path sentences, people must resolve competing interpretations, though initial misinterpretations can linger despite reanalysis. This study examines the role of inhibitory control (IC) in managing these misinterpretations among Chinese-English bilinguals. Using self-paced reading tasks, we investigated how IC influences recovery from garden-path sentences in Chinese (L1) and its interaction with language proficiency during English (L2) processing. Results indicate that IC does not affect garden-path recovery in Chinese, suggesting reliance on semantic context may reduce the need for IC. In contrast, findings for English L2 learners reveal a complex relationship between language proficiency and IC: Participants with low L2 proficiency but high IC showed lingering misinterpretations, while those with high proficiency exhibited none. These results support and extend the Model of Cognitive Control (Ness et al., 2023). Moreover, our comparison of three Stroop task versions identifies L1 colour-word Stroop task as the preferred measure of IC in bilingual research.
