The allophonic variation of coda /S/ in the Florianopolitan variety of Brazilian Portuguese shows explicit associations between [ʃ] and the local stereotype of native resident – one who was raised in Florianopolis whose parents were also raised in the area. We hypothesize that the aforementioned explicit association is an implicit association, that is, an unconscious and automatic one. We argue that an implicit association towards the native resident stereotype is a cognitive bias that affects how Florianopolitans perceive the speech of other Florianopolitans. The strength of the associations was verified in terms of participants’ linguistic background. In order to do so, an Implicit Association Test and an explicit task pairing the [ʃ]/[s] variants with the native/non-native resident stereotypes were applied to 30 Florianopolitans whose parents were native, non-native, or mixed-origin residents. We found that an implicit association is at play in a moderate fashion. However, linguistic background only predicted the explicit association. More important, the fact that Florianopolitans explicitly chose the guise containing [ʃ] as the most representative of the speech of the native resident – even though some participants reported that non-existent prosodic elements differentiated the guises – reinforces the role of implicit cognitive biases on the social perception of coda /S/.

社会对巴西葡萄牙语中尾声/ S /等位变体变化的认知偏见

巴西葡萄牙语的Florianopolitan变种中尾气/ S /的等位变体显示[ʃ]与当地居民的当地刻板印象之间存在明显的关联-在弗洛里亚诺波利斯长大的父母在该地区也长大。我们假设上述显式关联是隐式关联,即无意识和自动的关联。我们认为,对本地居民刻板印象的隐式关联是一种认知偏见,会影响弗洛里亚诺大都会人如何看待其他弗洛里亚诺大都会人的言论。通过参加者的语言背景证明了协会的实力。为此,隐式联想测验和将[ʃ] / [s]变体与本地/非本地居民刻板印象配对的明确任务,应用于30位父母为本地,非本地或混合本地居民的弗洛里亚诺大都会人士。我们发现隐式关联正在以适度的方式发挥作用。但是,语言背景仅预示了显式关联。更重要的是,弗洛里亚诺政治家明确选择了包含[ʃ]的伪装作为当地居民言语的最代表,尽管有些参与者报告说不存在韵律成分使伪装与众不同,这一事实加强了隐性认知偏见的作用。对尾声/ S /的社会认知。语言背景仅预示了显式关联。更重要的是,弗洛里亚诺政治家明确选择了包含[ʃ]的伪装作为当地居民言语的最代表,尽管有些参与者报告说不存在韵律成分使伪装与众不同,这一事实加强了隐性认知偏见的作用。对尾声/ S /的社会认知。语言背景仅预示了显式关联。更重要的是,弗洛里亚诺政治家明确选择了包含[ʃ]的伪装作为当地居民言语的最代表,尽管有些参与者报告说不存在韵律成分使伪装与众不同,这一事实加强了隐性认知偏见的作用。对尾声/ S /的社会认知。
