Language implicit attitude is an important field of linguistic psychology research.Studies show that linguistic relativity and linguistic economic status are important factors that influence individuals' implicit attitude towards language.Linguistic relativity believes that language influences thinking.Different languages ??have different influences on people's way of thinking and world view because of their grammatical differences.Language and culture are inseparable.Language is the carrier of culture.Specific culture will affect the perception of language users to some extent.Model and thinking structure;research shows that language directly constructs implicit attitude.At the same time,implicit attitude as an aspect of language and cognition is bound to be influenced by different thinking modes and worldviews of language population,thus implying the language itself.Attitudes tend to be biased.At present,the study of linguistic relativity to explain the implicit attitude of language focuses on the comparison of different language languages and the study of one language(such as English)in the same language family.However,the comparative study of one language and language outside the language family is basically not involved..In addition,the related research also shows that the economic status of the language area is another important factor affecting the implicit attitude of the language;many studies have shown that the higher the economic status of the language area,the positive attitude towards the language;the lower the economic status of the language area,People's implicit attitude towards this language is negative.The study of the economic status of the language area mostly focuses on the comparison of the differences in implicit attitudes between different English forms,while the comparison of languages other than English is lacking.Chinese dialects have a long history and use more than 1 billion people.The dialects are hard to count.There are only a handful of researches on the implicit attitudes of dialects.As a special language,dialects and the economic status of dialects also affect individual dialects.What is the implicit attitude? Based on the above problems and in order to make up for the shortcomings of the current research,This study takes the Han nationality college students in Yunnan as the research object,and uses the implicit association test as the research method to explore the implicit attitude of Yunnan Han nationality students to different dialects to verify the linguistic relativity and dialect area.The impact of economic status on the implicit attitude of the test dialect.In the study 1,the implicit association test(IAT)was used to select the northeast dialect and the Cantonese dialects in the native language family as experimental materials to explore the implicit attitude of Yunnan Han nationality students to the Northeast dialect and Cantonese dialect to verify the perspective of linguistic relativity.The experiment uses 2×2 internal design of the subjects,the independent variables are: dialect(Northeast dialect,Cantonese dialect),task type(compatible task: Northeast dialect/active vocabulary,Cantonese dialect/negative vocabulary),incompatible tasks: Northeast Dialect/negative vocabulary,Cantonese dialect/positive vocabulary),the dependent variable is the response time and the logarithmic value.It is found that the Han nationality Han nationality students in Yunnan have a positive attitude toward the Northeast dialect,and the implicit attitude towards the Cantonese dialect is negative.Study 2 uses the Beijing dialect and the northeast dialect in the native language family,as well as Cantonese dialects and Xiang dialects outside the native language to conduct experimental research,and explores the influence of the economic status of dialect districts on the implicit attitude of Yunnan Han nationality college students.Experiment 2A is a 2×2 internal design of the language.The independent variables are: economic status of the dialect area(high and low),task type(compatible task:Beijing dialect/active vocabulary,northeast dialect/negative vocabulary,incompatibility Task: Beijing dialect/negative vocabulary,Northeast dialect/active vocabulary,dependent variable is reaction time and logarithmic value,the results show that Yunnan Han nationality college students have positive attitude towards Beijing dialect and negative attitude towards Northeast dialect.Experiment 2B is 2×2test design outside the native language language,the independent variables are:economic status(high and low)in dialect area,task type(compatible task: Cantonese dialect / positive vocabulary,Xiang dialect / negative vocabulary,incompatible tasks:Cantonese dialect/negative vocabulary,Xiang dialect/positive vocabulary,dependent variable is reaction time and logarithm.Experiment 2B results show that Yunnan Han nationality students have positive attitude towards Cantonese dialect and negative attitude towards Xiang dialect.In summary,the main conclusions of this study are:(1)there are differences in the implicit attitudes of the students of yunnan-han nationality towards the northeast dialect and the cantonese dialect,which verifies the viewpoint of linguistic relativity.The students of yunnan-han nationality have a positive attitude towards the implicit attitude of dialects in the same native language family and a negative attitude towards the implicit attitude of dialects outside the family.(2)the economic status of the dialect area has an influence on the implicit attitude towards the dialect of the han nationality college students from yunnan.The higher the economic status of the dialect area,the more positive the implicit attitude of the han nationality college students in yunnan towards the dialect.On the contrary,the lower the economic status of the dialect area,the negative implicit attitude of the students of yunnan-han nationality towards the dialect.(3)Language relativity plays a decisive role in the study of native and non-native dialects,regardless of the differences in the economic status of the dialect area,while the economic status of dialect area plays a decisive role in controlling the influence of Language Relativity and in the study of dialects within or outside the same language family.
