Abstract
The article describes and analyzes the experimental data obtained during a survey of adolescents of two groups: hearing and hearing-impaired. The objective of the work is to get psycholinguistic results on lexical coding in two semiotic systems by the example of one lexical unit and to construct a semantic-synonymic field including words-synonyms and words-associations encoded in the students’ ordinary consciousness. The novelty of the research is that for the first time two semiotic systems of information coding are compared and a conception of semantic-synonymic field is developed and tested. The obtained results can be used in teaching while explaining vocabulary to students, in further research from the perspective of psycholinguistics and cognitive linguistics.
