摘　　要：本研究在“时间顺序原则”假设下,采用自定步速阅读实验,通过操纵“前”“后”改变句子的时间顺序关系,考察逆时序和顺时序两种不同时间顺序关系对汉语句子理解的影响。研究发现,汉语母语者在阅读逆时序“前”句和顺时序“后”句时并未出现显著差异。这说明汉语母语者对此类句子的理解不受时间顺序关系影响,逆时序句并未消耗更多加工资源,“时间顺序原则”的适用性有限。This study conducted a self-paced reading experiment to explore the effects of different chronological relationships(reverse chronological and chronological order)on the comprehension of Chinese sentences,based on the hypothesis of the Principle of Temporal Sequence.The temporal order of the sentences was manipulated using the terms qian(before)and hou(after).The qian sentences represented the reverse chronological order,while the hou sentences represented the chronological order.The results revealed no significant differences in comprehension among native Chinese speakers when reading sentences in chronological and reverse chronological order.These findings suggest that the temporal order does not significantly impact the understanding of such sentences for native Chinese speakers and that the reverse chronological sentences do not consume additional processing resources.Therefore,these results imply that the Principle of Temporal Sequence may not be universally applicable.
