Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study examined the mechanism of interference and inhibition relevant to the semantic and lexical process in cognitive processing. This experiment used unique picture-word interference tasks that manipulated the time interval between the onset of stimulus and response by response delay intervals (RDIs). This method clarified the mechanism of interference and inhibition which arises between semantic and lexical processing including the function of reaction determination system. Results of the experiments suggest that the reaction time, pattern of interference, and the effect of RDIs on tasks changed with the combination semantic relevance of picture and word and of reaction demands. Based on these results, we proposed the use of the model of information processing on these tasks. Implications for cognitive development and the application of it to the education field were also discussed.
