The Relationship Between Voice and the Image Triggered by the Voice: American Speakers and American Listeners

  • 발행 : 2009.06.30

초록

The present study aims at investigating the relationship between voices and the physical images triggered by the voices. It is the final part of a four-part series and the results reported in the present study are limited to those of American speakers and American listeners. Combined with the results from previous studies (Moon, 2000; Moon, 2002; Tak, 2005), the results suggest that (1) there is a very strong, much higher than chance-level relationship between voices and the pictures chosen for the voices by the perception experiment subjects; (2) the more physical characteristics that are given, the better the chance for correctly matching voices with pictures; and (3) culture (in the present, language environment) seems to play a role in conjuring up the mental images from voices.
