Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research project investigated how prosodic information contributes to predictive sentence processing in second language learners. Specifically, it evaluated how the reliability of prosody affects the sentence comprehension process among English learners with different native languages (Japanese and French). Experiments revealed that variations in prosody effectively aid in predictive sentence comprehension and that information processing is adjusted based on its reliability. Additionally, the study explored how native and second language experiences influence language processing strategies, providing new insights into interlingual differences and the language processing capabilities of learners.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
この研究は、第二言語学習者がプロソディー情報をどのように処理し、理解するかを明らかにした点で学術的意義が大きい。特に、プロソディーの信頼性が文理解プロセスに及ぼす影響を検証することで、言語理解の予測的メカニズムの理解を深めた。社会的には、多言語社会におけるコミュニケーションの質を向上させるための教育やトレーニングプログラムの開発に寄与する可能性があり、言語学習者がより効果的に第二言語を習得するための支援に役立つ知見を提供した。
