摘要 对方位词的研究表明了习得顺序和年龄的规律性，包括后面和前面的使用上下文的系统变化。目前的研究通过利用更自然的启发程序并探索早期使用大型参考对象的后面和前面来扩展早期的工作。 33名2岁儿童； 7至4； 7、告诉木偶去哪里寻找丢失的物品。结果表明英语方位词的习得顺序与之前的报告一致。然而，木偶故事方法在较年轻的时候引发了给定的方位词，并且“backing”的首次使用发生在大型的、无特征的参考对象上。后面和前面的使用模式表明了一个获取过程，在这个过程中，新的概念资源导致对对象配置的重新分析，从而导致意义的新方面。
ABSTRACT Studies of locatives suggest regularities in order and age of acquisition, including systematic changes in context of use for behind and in front of. The present investigation extends earlier work by utilizing more naturalistic elicitation procedures and exploring an early use of behind and in front of with large reference objects. Thirty-three children, ages 2; 7 to 4; 7, told puppets where to look for missing objects. Results indicate an order of acquisition for English locatives which is consistent with prior reports. However, the puppet story method elicited given locatives at younger ages, and the first uses of behind occurred with large, non-featured reference objects. The patterns of use for behind and in front of suggest an acquisition process in which new conceptual resources lead to the re-analysis of object configurations and thus to new aspects of meaning.
