    Abstract: The perception of prosodic boundaries is critical to spoken language comprehension, and it has become a primary research topic among psychologists and psycholinguists in the past decade. Utterances are chunked into prosodic units of different strengths. The boundaries between prosodic units are mainly signaled by acoustic cues like pitch change, final lengthening, and pause. Previous cognitive, linguistic, developmental, and neuroimaging studies have significantly advanced our understanding of the processing of prosodic boundaries. We now know that listeners use a perceptual weighting strategy to process prosodic boundary cues, and there are specific brain mechanisms for prosodic boundary processing. The ability to processing prosodic boundaries steadily develops with age in young children and transfers to a second language, but it generally decreases with age in older adults. Future studies should expand the investigation of prosodic boundaries to more pragmatic genres and focus on revealing the cognitive mechanisms underlying prosodic boundary processing, the relationship between prosodic boundary and syntax processing, and the development of prosodic boundary perception in second language learners.

    Subjects: Psychology >> Personality Psychology submitted time 2018-02-12

    Abstract:[目的]从心理学的角度全面分析金庸小说人物人格与创作阶段、性别之间的关系。[方法]本文通过创作阶段对金庸15部小说进行划分,采用基于数据挖掘的文学智能分析方法,通过中文心理分析系统对人物对话进行处理,得到人物的大五人格预测分数。[结果] 女性人物的神经质倾向高于男性人物;创作阶段影响小说人物的尽责性、外向性倾向。[局限]仅仅对小说中的人物进行了分析,没有和金庸本人生平经历和创作时代特点相结合。[结论]本文从心理学人格理论出发探讨金庸小说的人物描写特点,丰富了“金学”的研究成果,为研究金庸的人物刻画风格与偏好提供了新的视角。
