Abstract:
Objective To explore the influence of processing depth of verb comprehension on the pro-cess of sensorimotor simulation of verbs and its automatization characteristics.Methods Thirty-six com-mon college students were selected,and required to complete verb semantic judgment tasks of Experi-ment 1 and non-semantic judgment tasks of Experiment 2.The changes in hand and foot action out-puts were also observed.Results In Experiment 1,in semantic judgment tasks,the reaction time of leg-related verbs was significantly shorter than for hand-related verbs(P=0.001),with no significant differences in true-false word judgment tasks.Moreover,in Experiment 2,no significant interaction ef-fect was found between verb types and action execution(P=0.199).Conclusion The sensorimotor simula-tion triggered by verb comprehension is modulated by processing of different depths,and individuals are more inclined to utilize sensorimotor simulation of verbs at higher levels of processing depth,non-automatically.
