掩蔽启动效应作为书面字词识别研究的重要手段之一被广泛使用了很多年。然而,学界对其运行机制及原理的探讨并不多见。本文拟从掩蔽启动范式的结构、种类、发生机制以及主要模型对该效应的解释等几个方面展开讨论,以揭示该效应的运行本质和特点,有助于更好地使用该范式进行科学研究。
Masked priming technique has been widely applied for many years. However, research into the mechanisms of masked priming is very limited. This article systematically investigates masked priming from its origin, major types of priming, the working mechanisms, and the interpretations of the effect by the dominant models, so as to reveal the essence and characteristics of masked priming, and advance its applications in research.
