There is a growing body of literature demonstrating the relationship between the activation of sensorimotor processes in object recognition. It is unclear, however, if these processes are influenced by the differences in how real (3D) tools and two-dimensional (2D) images of tools are processed by the brain. Here, we examined if these differences could influence the naming of tools. Participants were presented with a prime stimulus that was either a picture of a tool, or a real tool, followed by a target stimulus that was always a real tool. They were then required to name each tool as they appeared. The functional use action required by the target tool was either the same (i.e., squeegee–paint roller) or different (i.e. knife–whisk) to the prime. We found that the format in which the prime tool was presented (i.e., a picture or real tool) had no influence on the participants’ response times to naming the target tool. Furthermore, participants were faster at naming target tools relative to prime tools when the exact same tool was presented as both the prime and target. There was no difference in response times to naming the target tool relative to the prime when they were different tools, regardless of whether the tools’ functional actions were the same or different. We also found more errors in naming target tools relative to the primes when different tools had a different functional action compared to when the same tool was presented as both the prime and the target. Taken together, our results highlight that the functional actions associated with tools do not facilitate or interfere with the recognition of tools for the purposes of naming. The theoretical implications of these results are discussed.

关于工具实名与图片命名的初步研究

越来越多的文献证明了目标识别中感觉运动过程的激活之间的关系。但是,尚不清楚这些过程是否受大脑处理实际(3D)工具和工具的二维(2D)图像的方式差异的影响。在这里,我们检查了这些差异是否会影响工具的命名。向参与者展示了主要刺激,它要么是工具的图片,要么是真实的工具,然后是始终是真实工具的目标刺激。然后要求他们在出现时给每个工具命名。目标工具所需的功能使用动作与底漆相同或相同(即,刮刀-油漆滚筒)或不同(即,刀-打磨)。我们发现主要工具的展示格式(即 图片或真实工具)对参与者命名目标工具的响应时间没有影响。此外,当将相同的工具同时显示为主要工具和目标工具时,参与者在命名目标工具时要比主要工具更快。当目标工具是不同的工具时,相对于主工具命名目标的响应时间没有差异,无论工具的功能动作是相同还是不同。当不同的工具具有不同的功能动作时,与将相同的工具同时显示为主要对象和目标对象时,我们还发现了相对于主要元素的命名错误。综上所述,我们的结果强调,与工具相关的功能性动作不会促进或干扰出于命名目的对工具的识别。
