众所周知，人们在语音、词汇和句法层面上适应统计规律。对于语篇层次结构的适应，如对代词与其先行词之间关系的结构的适应，我们所知甚少。为了填补这一空白，本文通过以下问题回顾了关于参照模式学习的研究：(1)人们是否代表参照结构，(2)话语级表征持续多长时间，(3)用于参照适应的表征有多具体，(4)这种适应的机制是什么，以及(5)目前用于测试参照适应的方法是什么。本文还简要总结了其他语言学层面的顺应研究。这一系列工作将适应扩展到更高层次的结构，并展示了人们如何学习驱动成功沟通和阅读技能的语言模式。
It is well established that people adapt to statistical regularities at phonological, lexical, and syntactic levels. Much less is known about adaptation to discourse‐level structures, such as adaptation to structures defined as the relationship between a pronoun and its antecedent. To fill this gap, this paper reviews studies on the learning of referential patterns by asking (1) do people represent referential structures, (2) how long do discourse‐level representations last, (3) how specific are representations that are used for referential adaptation, (4) what mechanisms underlie this adaptation, and (5) what the current methods are used to test referential adaptation. This paper also briefly summarises the work on adaptation at other linguistic levels. This line of work extends adaptation to higher‐level structures and demonstrates how people learn language patterns that drive successful communication and reading skills.
