词汇联想测试是心理词汇组织方式研究的重要手段。学界对二语心理词汇的性质看法存在较大分歧,其中一个重要原因在于研究者对词汇联想试验的反应词进行分类时主要依靠自己的主观判断。作者提出,研究者可以借助在线数据库,如WordNet和BNC,辅助心理词汇研究。本文还具体探讨了如何使用这些在线工具来实现对反应词的客观归类,使词汇联想研究的结果尽可能不受研究者个人偏见的干扰。
Mental lexicon is the representation of lexical knowledge in human mind. One way to explore the organization of the mental lexicon is the use of word associations. After reviewing the paradigmatic/syntagmatic dichotomy in the classification of response words from word association tests, the authors point out that it is problematic for researchers to merely rely on their own intuition in classifying response words, which is common practice among word association researchers. The authors then suggest the possibility of applying WordNet and BNC into identifying paradigmatic and syntagmatic responses respectively and discuss such a possibility in detail.
