Therefore,it is necessary to bring the organization of such resources as close to the human mentallexicon structure as possible and to delve into conceptualization. Although the text-basedstudies of the process of conceptualization are effective, they have certain limitations.Recent neuro-linguistic and psycholinguistic studies highlight the existence of embodiedcognition and situational cognition or conceptualization. Texts are created with a specificcommunication strategy and must follow certain language specific rules. Alongside thehuman ability to pursue a specific goal and to act consciously, fundamental automaticmechanisms (semantic priming) which also participate in the conceptualization of the reality,operate in the human mind and affect human behavior. The purpose of this studywas to demonstrate the compatibility of the corpus linguistics approach and experimentalpsycholinguistic methods and to prove the prototypical naturalness of the results obtainedin different languages. Multilingual data speaks for their universality and prototypicalityat the terminological level. This makes it possible to obtain more accurate data about thehuman conceptual system. The data obtained as a result of corpus analysis and associativeВопросы психолингвистики 4 (42) 2019 75Коренева О.

The present terminologystudy in Russian and Spanish combines the analysis of the corpus and psycholinguisticmethods. Some environmental concepts were analyzed in a bilingual corpus to establishthe basic concepts and the relationships between the concepts typical for a given specificfield of knowledge. The taken approach was used to reconstruct a complete universal framethat does not depend on a specific language. The results were compared with the data ofthe associative test with Russian and Spanish native speakers and with the results of thelexical decision with Spanish native speakers. The main objective of the study was todemonstrate the effectiveness of the multidisciplinary approach and the need to combinecorpus analysis and psycholinguistic methods to study structures and the representation ofspecialized knowledge. %K Frame based terminology %K Corpus linguistics %K Experimental psycholinguistics %K Word association test %K Conceptualization %~
