{ "pk": 28035, "title": "Symbol grounding and system construction in the color lexicon", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "This research investigated the acquisition process of the\ncolor lexicon, specifically how color words are initially\ngrounded and develop into the lexical system possessed\nby the adults in the ambient language. We conducted a\nlongitudinal study in which Japanese-learning 2-year-\nolds were tested every month on their understanding of\nbasic words denoting 8 chromatic colors, continuing\nuntil they were able to map these words onto their\nreferents consistently. The results strongly endorse the\nview that acquisition of the color lexicon should be\ncharacterized as a process of system construction,\nthrough which children reorganize prelinguistic color\ncategories onto the linguistic categories of the ambient\nlanguage, thereby representations of individual words\nare continuously refined along with the refinement of\nthe representation of the system as a whole.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "color word learning; lexical acquisition;\nsymbol grounding; Bayesian model" } ], "section": "Publication-based-Talks", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/2jk1h9qw", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Mutsumi", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Imai", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Keio University", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Shohei", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Hidaka", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Noburo", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Saji", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Kamakura Womans University", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Masato", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Ohba", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Keio University", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2018-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/28035/galley/17674/download/" } ] }
