Comparing the same stimulus associative fields fixed in different historical periods : technique application case study

Medium-term dynamics of the naive picture of the world through the prism of associative experiment

The article shows that the changes of associative fields in diachrony somewhat schematically, but quite accurately reflect the dynamics of corresponding fragments of the naïve picture of the world. The undertaken comparative analysis of the associative fields of some stimuli representing “security perimeter” concept as of 1988-1997 (the data of “Russian associative dictionary”) and 2013-2014 (the results of the author’s experiment) revealed both some structural differences and more pronounced changes in relevance of a number of components and separate representatives of the fields under studyyesBelgorod State Universit

Revealing frame dynamics through comparing associative fields in diachrony

The article shows that the changes of an associative field in diachrony can somewhat schematically, but quite accurately reflect the dynamics of the corresponding frame over time. The undertaken comparative analysis of associative fields of stimuli ‘napitok’ (drink) and ‘pit’yo’ (drink(ing)) - as of 1988-1997 (the data of “Russian associative dictionary”) and 2013-2014 (the results of the author experiment) - helps to develop the model of the frame “drink” - to the extent of slots actualized through associative reactions - and reveals some changes in its structure. Ascertained dynamics implies variation in the relevancy of almost all slots. The revealed trends also reflect some harmonization of this frame with its Western analoguesye
