題名: | Semantic attributes and mathematical values in the processing of Chinese classifiers and measure words | 作者: | 何萬順 Her, One-Soon Chen, Ying-Chun 顏乃欣 Yen, Nai-Shing |

Cs categorize objects based on semantic attributes and Cs and Ms both denote quantity in terms of mathematical values. The aim of this study was to conduct a psycholinguistic experiment to examine whether participants process C/Ms based on their mathematical values with a semantic distance comparison task, where participants judged which of the two C/M phrases was semantically closer to the target C/M. Results showed that participants performed more accurately and faster for C/Ms with fixed values than the ones with variable values. These results demonstrated that mathematical values do play an important role in the processing of C/Ms. This study may thus shed light on the influence of the linguistic system of C/Ms on magnitude cognition. | 關聯: | PLOS ONE, Vol.12, No.9, pp.e0185047 | 資料類型: | article | DOI: | https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0185047 |
