Abstract
Desde el uso de los mensajes SMS se ha venido
utilizando un lenguaje escrito cada vez más
abreviado, que lejos de parecer una deformación
del lenguaje, sigue un código único y especial
que ha “evolucionado” entre los usuarios
activos de las “nuevas” redes sociales. En este
trabajo se busca determinar el grado de recuerdo
en los mensajes abreviados de Whatsapp
en una muestra de 32 participantes, divididos
en jóvenes (20-25 años) y adultos (45-55 años).
De igual forma, se investiga el coste cognitivo
que supone la lectura de un mensaje abreviado
con emoticonos frente a uno no abreviado siguiendo
la normativa de la RAE. De este análisis
se obtienen varias conclusiones principales. La
primera es que el lenguaje abreviado es capaz
de transmitir la información más destacada a
costa de un mayor tiempo de lectura, aunque
los sujetos se vean competentes. Segundo, hay
mayores ideas principales en hombres adultos y
mujeres jóvenes. Tercero, hay un mayor número
de ideas distorsionadas para los adultos de
la condición abreviada y jóvenes sin abreviar.
Todo esto hace que este lenguaje tenga unas
características y finalidad que lo hace ser un
lenguaje vivo y único.
Ever since the days of SMS texts people have been using a progressively abbreviated language, which further from looking like a deformation of the language itself, follows a unique and special code which has ‘’evolved’’ among the active users of the ‘’new’’ social networks. This work is scoped towards determining the degree of remembrance in shortened Whatsapp messages out of a 32 participant sample, divided as young (age 20-25) and adult (age 45-55). Similarly, it is also investigated the cognitive costs of the reading of a shortened message with emoticons as opposed to a non-shortened which follows the regulations of RAE. Out of this analysis several main conclusions are obtained. The first one being that the abbreviated language is capable of transmitting the most outstanding information at the expense of a greater reading time, despite the subjects looking competent enough. Secondly, there is a bigger quantity of main ideas in adult men and young women. Lastly, there is a bigger number of distorted ideas among adults of the abbreviated condition and among the youth of the non-shortened one. All of these concepts provide the language with the characteristics and purpose that make it be a unique and living language.
