我還是ㄘㄨㄚˋ 都不知道自己在說甚麼了~
其實我的題目很簡單
只是單純解釋完experiment 就可以了
但是這樣的presentation一定很糟
而且咧我還發現這個study的漏洞
[其實一直到presentation前都不知道自己對不對...因為my point will make this study so questionable..lol]
源起於我說中文!
謝謝nette給我這個idea: 去問Professor Wu
真的感謝Professor Helen Wu
願意回答我的問題
我沒有make appointment
直接闖進去ㄟ
謝謝Frank告訴我教室位置
(謝謝我自己那麼聰明 想到這一點 ...lol)
雖然我很ㄘㄨㄚˋ
至少我made a good point during the persentation
還有喔~ 有人問我兩個問題喔~不過我都答得出來~hahaha
大概說一下我的topic好了 也算是為自己做一個紀錄
What has been learned about category-specific deficits from teh study of mass-nouns(such as materials, edible substances and drinks)
Borgo&Shalllice (2003)
Borgo & Shallice done an experiment on HPE patients in 2001
Theire primary purpose is "to investigate liquids and materials,
in addition to three frequently investigated categories: man-made artifacts, living things
and edible substance in the herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) patients”
so they done a very simple experiment with 5 HSE patients.
and they found out that patient MU's performance is different from other 4 patients
especially on the naming of Living Things Categories.
And they got a conclusion of their simple studies:
1)This observation is consists with Warrington & Shallice (1984)’s Sensory Functional Theory
which believed that category specific deficits were related to the object’s sensory or functional information.
2)Mass-kind categories was related to living thing category.
Borgo & Shallice later done another study similar to the study that did in 2001 with more focus on the mass-kind categores
and with more aspects on it.
Throught out all those 4 experiments, they concluded that:
-MU had no sensory knowledge of items in mass-kind categories when it was not physically appears to him from the stimulus
-His knowledge of artifacts was good for all types of questions
-Sensory quality is critical when differentiating LTs especially for the mass-kinds
-- >The experiment results support the conclusion of Bargo and Shallice (2001): “Sensory functional theory can
be used to predict deficits in categories other than living things by showing that the impairment in these new
categories mass-kinds are particularly linked with loss of sensory-information"
However,
Further research needed in the study of MU because the two studies were only focus on MU.
The experiment result should be able to replicated to other patients.
So this question is remained unsolved:
"Whether the findings of MU can be replicated in other patients with the same functional syndrome?"
Other Researchs that I done on the mass-noun and count noun in the category specific deficits:
-The difference between mass and cont nouns is represented primarily syntactically rather than semantically
-It is difficult to find a dissociation between mass and count nouns at the semantic and lexical level
-The past lexical retrieval studies suggested that mass and count nouns may be supported by largely overlapping regions in the brain.
* At general and conceptual level, mass kinds were found to associate with living entities (Borgo & Shallice, 2003 stuides) *
Conclusion:
-Further research on mass noun and count noun in category-specific deficits is needed!!
Here is the fun part!!
Discussion Questions
In Chinese, the distinguish between mass nouns and count nouns is not that obvious as English (especially the Plural and Singular concept of word) or we should said that how individual lexical items are categorized in both English and Chinese are different.
What will the Borgo and Shallice’s experiment result be if MU is a native Chinese speaker who does not have concrete concept of mass and count noun?( Will he still be impaired to materials, edible substances and drinks under the same brain impairment.)
The experiment result would be the same:
The differences that exist between the English and Chinese nouns is the individual lexical item. And “It is difficult to find a dissociation between mass and count nouns at the semantic and lexical level”
Sensory quality is critical when differentiating living things especially for the mass-kinds.
In conclusion, even if MU did not have concrete knowledge of mass and count nouns he will still have the impairment in materials, edible substances and drinks.

心得感想:
要有自信 別人的study不一定是100% right
多多少少都會有questionalbe points.
