Compréhension d'énoncés contenant une ambiguïté lexicale chez des adultes jeunes et âgés : effets de contexte, de familiarité et de fréquence

Abstract: Résumé Notre objectif est de comparer, chez des adultes jeunes (21,5 ans) et âgés (75,3 ans), la compréhension d’énoncés contenant un homophone dans un contexte de phrase antérieure qui permet ou non de lever l’ambiguïté. Une tâche de sélection du dessin illustrant l’énoncé ambigu permet d’en évaluer l’interprétation. Les sens des homophones différaient ou non en fréquence et variaient ou non sur les estimations de familiarité fournies par des personnes issues des mêmes générations. Les résultats indiquent un … Show more

“…Brosseau and Cohen (1996) found differences in generation of category exemplars in older and younger adults. Similarly, Dommes and Le Rouzo (2004) demonstrated that older adults produce different familiarity ratings and show a greater effect of semantic priming when accessing alternate meanings of ambiguous (homophonous) lexical items. Finally, Taler, Chertkow, and Saumier (2005) demonstrate that older and younger adults manifest differential performance when interpreting novel noun-noun combinations, in which they are required to access and integrate semantic representations of familiar object words.…”

“…In summary, although behavioural measures do not typically reveal age-related decline in lexicosemantic processing, longitudinal alterations in lower-level language processing have been hinted at by some findings. A few studies examining lexicosemantic access and organization have reported differential performance in younger and older adults (Brosseau & Cohen, 1996; Dommes & Le Rouzo, 2004; Taler et al, 2005). Neuroimaging studies have suggested that there may exist differences in patterns of neural activation during visual word recognition (Madden et al, 1996; Madden et al, 2002; Whiting et al, 2003).…”

“…The aim of Pre-experiment 3 was to match the objective frequency of the stimuli with their subjective frequency, as recommended by recent works (Dommes & Le Rouzo, 2007; Martin et al, 2009). Forty-eight young adults (mean age: 19.2 ± 2.1) and 48 older people (mean age: 73.6 ± 7), including 35 women and 13 men, voluntarily participated in this study.…”
