摘要:

空间-时间联合编码效应(spatial-temporal association of response codes effect, STEARC)是指时间的心里表征具有空间特性。这种时空关联现象具有多方向性、多通道性和不同文化背景下优势轴的差异性。影响这种现象的因素主要有阅读和书写习惯、语言、空间参考框架和情绪状态等。目前空间-时间联合编码效应的理论解释主要有隐喻构念观、具身理论、命题符号理论和知觉符号理论等。未来的研究需要进一步综合三条空间轴线, 深入探讨空间-时间联合编码效应的影响因素及其神经生理机制。

Abstract:

The spatial-temporal association of response codes (STEARC) effect indicates that the mental representation of time is associated with space, which is multidirectional and multichannel. Studies demonstrated that people spatialized time in three-dimensional space, including the sagittal (front/back), the transverse (left/right), and the vertical (up/down) axes. Individuals under different cultures prefer different spatial axis when representing time. Four factors can affect STEARC direction: Reading and writing habits, language experience, the spatial reference frame of experimental task, as well as emotion. Researchers explained STEARC effect through the Metaphorical Structuring View, the Embodied Cognition Theory, the Propositional Symbol Theory and the Perceptual Symbol Theory. Future research should improve the research paradigm, integrate the theoretical framework, and discuss the neural physiological mechanism of STEARC effect.
