本章考察了知觉语境和话语语境对儿童全面量化句穷尽配对理解的影响。两个实验比较了两个最近的穷尽配对的预测。在一个帐户中,Crain et al.(1996)认为,孩子们之所以会犯详尽配对错误,是因为用来引出错误的实验不满足一个被称为合理异议条件的幸福条件。Drozd(2001)在另一个解释中认为,当儿童无法评估成年人通常用来限制全称量词解释的预设时,他们会采用穷举配对。我们认为,结果支持Drozd的帐户。
This chapter investigates the effects of perceptual and discourse context on children’s Exhaustive Pairing interpretation of universally quantified sentences. Two experiments compared the predictions of two recent accounts of Exhaustive Pairing. In one account, Crain et al.(1996) argue that children make the Exhaustive Pairing error because the experiments used to elicit the error do not satisfy a felicity condition called the Condition of Plausible Dissent. In another account, Drozd (2001) argued that children adopt Exhaustive Pairing when they fail to evaluate the presuppositions adults normally use to constrain the interpretation of a universal quantifier. We argue that the results support Drozd’s account.
