神经振荡:窥探句法解析的时间进程
Neural oscillations: Exploring the temporal dynamics of syntactic parsing
在语言表型与神经机制之间寻找对应关系,即所谓的映射问题(the mappingproblem),是当前研究的一大热点。其中,句法解析的神经机制尤具挑战性,这涉及到如何在神经活动中识别出对应于句法结构构建的过程,是人类语言能力之谜破题的关键。近期神经振荡活动的相关研究不仅为句法解析过程中句法加工的心理现实性提供了有力证据,也展示了利用神经振荡来阐释句法解析过程的神经编码活动的可行性。而理论语言学最简方案有关句法计算的理论模型可以与神经科学中有关神经振荡的实验研究相互印证,通过此类研究可以窥探句法构建的时间进程。未来研究可集中于四方面:神经振荡与句法加工的更细粒度对齐;神经振荡的发生机制及其生物学意义;儿童语言发展过程中神经振荡的变化模式;语言障碍神经生理基础及其康复应用。
he mapping problem, which aims to establish correspondences between linguistic phenotypes and neural mechanisms, is a central focus of contemporary research. Within this domain, the neural mechanisms underlying syntactic parsing are particularly challenging, as they involve identifying neural activities corresponding to the processes of syntactic structure construction. This endeavor is crucial for deciphering the enigmas of human linguistic capability. Recent investigations into neural oscillatory activity not only furnish compelling evidence for the "autonomy of syntax" of language functions in the human brain but also illustrate the feasibility of employing neural oscillations to explicate the neural coding activities underpinning syntactic parsing. The theoretical models of syntactic computation within the minimalist framework of theoretical linguistics can be corroborated by experimental research on neural oscillations in neuroscience. Such interdisciplinary studies have the potential to elucidate the temporal dynamics inherent in autonomous syntactic structure building. Future research should focus on four key areas: the fine-grained alignment between neural oscillations and syntactic processing, the mechanisms and biological significance of neural oscillations, the developmental trajectory of neural oscillations during language acquisition in children, and the neurophysiological foundations of language disorders alongside their rehabilitative applications.
