Abstract
In this paper, we discuss the results of a blend production experiment and how it relates to previous research that was nearly exclusively based on observational data. Specifically, we study three different findings from published research, namely that (i) the shorter source word contributes more of itself to the blend than the longer source word, (ii) source word2 determines blend stress (more than source word1), and (iii) blending maximizes similarity between source words and blends. Using statistical techniques so far not employed in research on blends, we show that most findings from observational data regarding the three hypotheses studied are supported, but also occasionally tampered down.
 
Cet article analyse les résultats d’une étude expérimentale de productions d’amalgames et la façon dont ils diffèrent ou non de ceux d’études antérieures fondées sur des données d’observation. Plus précisément, nous analysons trois conclusions tirées de recherches déjà publiées, à savoir : (i) le mot source le plus court contribue pour une part plus significative à l’amalgame que le mot source plus long, (ii) le mot source2 détermine l’accentuation de l’amalgame (plus que le mot source 1), et (iii) le processus d’amalgamation tire au maximum partie de la similarité entre les mots sources et les amalgames produits. Nous avons eu recours à des techniques statistiques non employées jusqu’à présent pour l’étude du processus d’amalgamation, afin de démontrer que la plupart des conclusions tirées des données d’observation quant aux trois hypothèses ci-dessus sont confirmées, mais doivent également parfois être modulées.
