ABSTRACT

Language error is an important means and basis of psycholinguistics. The study of second language errors, which emerged in the 1960s, has contributed to the study of psycholinguistics, such as the mental lexicon of SLA and speech production. As a form of second language errors, Chinese character recognition errors are of great research value for the study of the formation of CSL learners’ mental lexicon and the psychological process of word recognition. This paper, based on the Chinese character recognition errors of international school CSL learners as the material, adopts the methods of probability statistics and natural observation of self-built corpus to explore the psychological process of Chinese character recognition of CSL students and the mediating role of orthographic, phonological and semantic representation in it, so as to provide reference for the further study of L2 mental lexicon and Chinese character teaching.
