术语“鸡尾酒会现象”的详细信息

英译术语:

cocktail-party phenomenon

汉语语境:

在有多人同时说话的嘈杂环境中，为什么具有正常听力的人能在一定的程度上听懂目标语句?研究这个著名的“鸡尾酒会现象“的一个新进展是将干扰言语的作用区分出了能量掩蔽和信息掩蔽两种成分。与发生在外周系统的能量掩蔽不同，信息掩蔽发生在心理层次并受到认知过程的调节。因此，主观空间分离、与目标语句节奏相关的视觉信号以及对目标语句某些特征的熟悉程度等知觉线索都具有去掩蔽作用。

英语语境:

In a noisy "cocktail-party" environment, target speech is masked by different sounds. One finding of the cocktail-party phenomenon is that the masking includes at least two different components: energetic masking and informational masking. Energetic masking occurs when peripheral neural activities elicited by the target signal are overwhelmed by those elicited by the mask signal, leading to a substantially degraded neural representation of the target signal.Informational masking occurs when the target and the masker are similar in some dimensions, such as when they are both speech signals. The similarity leads to a competition for the limited central cognitive processing resources between the target and the masker signal. Thus, the amount of informational masking is not only affected by the bottom-up processes but also modulated by the top-down processes. The effects, which occur at the perceptual level, of the perceived spatial separation, the visual cues such as lip reading and speech-synchronized light flash, and the familiarity with the characteristics of the target signal on releasing target speech from informational masking are summarized.
