论文摘要
对单词生产的研究通常会利用图片命名任务，包括图片单词干涉任务。在此任务中，参与者用叠加的分心单词命名图片。当分散术语与图片相关时，他们通常需要更多的时间来命名图片，而不是与图片无关（语义干扰效果）。本研究检查了一系列贝叶斯荟萃分析中这种作用的分布特性。语义干扰效应的荟萃分析估计首先表明该作用在整个反应时间分布中存在，并且在整个分布中增加。其次，我们发现参与者的平均语义干扰效应与反应时间分布尾部效果的变化之间存在相关性，这被认为反映了选择性抑制在命名任务中的参与。最后，我们通过模拟数据显示，即使没有使用抑制来生成数据，也会出现这种相关性，这表明不需要抑制来解释这种关系。
Studies of word production often make use of picture naming tasks, including the picture word interference task. In this task, participants name pictures with superimposed distractor words. They typically need more time to name pictures when the distractor word is semantically related to the picture than when it is unrelated (the semantic interference effect). The present study examines the distributional properties of this effect in a series of Bayesian meta-analyses. Meta-analytic estimates of the semantic interference effect first show that the effect is present throughout the reaction time distribution and that it increases throughout the distribution. Second, we find a correlation between a participant's mean semantic interference effect and the change in the effect in the tail of the reaction time distribution, which has been argued to reflect the involvement of selective inhibition in the naming task. Finally, we show with simulated data that this correlation emerges even when no inhibition is used to generate the data, which suggests that inhibition is not needed to explain this relationship.
