Abstract：
This study explores whether semantic processing in parafoveal reading in the Italian language is modulated by the perceptual and lexical features of stimuli by analyzing the results of the rapid parallel visual presentation (RPVP) paradigm experiment, which simultaneously presented two words, with one in the fovea and one in the parafovea. The words were randomly sampled from a set of semantically related and semantically unrelated pairs. The accuracy and reaction times in reading the words were measured as a function of the stimulus length and written word frequency. Fewer errors were observed in reading parafoveal words when they were semantically related to the foveal ones, and a larger semantic facilitatory effect was observed when the foveal word was highly frequent and the parafoveal word was short. Analysis of the reaction times suggests that the semantic relation between the two words sped up the naming of the foveal word when both words were short and highly frequent. Altogether, these results add further evidence in favor of the semantic processing of words in the parafovea during reading, modulated by the orthographic and lexical features of the stimuli. The results are discussed within the context of the most prominent models of word processing and eye movement controls in reading.
摘要：
本研究通过分析快速平行视觉呈现(RPVP)范式实验的结果,探讨意大利语中的旁凹阅读中的语义处理是否受到刺激的感知和词汇特征的调节,同时呈现两个词，一个在中央凹，一个在半凹。这些单词是从一组语义相关和语义无关的对中随机抽样的。阅读单词的准确性和反应时间是根据刺激长度和书写单词频率进行测量的。当它们在语义上与中央凹相关时，在阅读半凹单词时观察到的错误较少，当中央凹单词频率高且副凹单词较短时，观察到较大的语义促进效应。对反应时间的分析表明，当两个单词都较短且非常频繁时，两个单词之间的语义关系加快了中央凹单词的命名。总之,这些结果增加了进一步的证据，有利于阅读过程中词句的语义处理，由刺激的正交和词汇特征调制。在阅读中最突出的文字处理和眼动控制模型的背景下讨论了结果。
