本研究使用一种新的方法（偏好性注视范式）调查了儿童（N = 99，平均年龄（年轻）= 1;9，平均年龄（年长）= 2;3）在理解和生产中的过度延伸。包括真实的参照（其中有匹配）和异常（其中没有匹配）试验，以及非语言对照试验。在真实的参照试验中，所有儿童都明显更喜欢匹配的木偶。在异常试验中，儿童对其中两个标签（狗和猫）没有表现出偏好;然而，当“牛”被要求但不可用时，他们确实表现出偏好。基于先前生产中的过度扩张表现，没有差异。它的结论是，过度生产的儿童的潜在语义表征的诊断，并在理解的异常试验提供了有用的信息，幼儿的词汇条目。
This study investigated overextensions in comprehension and production using a new method (the preferential-looking paradigm) in which children (N = 99, mean age (younger) = 1;9, mean age (older) = 2;3) were asked to find the referent that matched the label they were given. Both Real Referent (in which there was a match) and Anomalous (in which there was no match) trials were included, as well as nonverbal control trials. During the Real Referent trials, all children significantly preferred the matching puppet. During the Anomalous trials, children showed no preference with two of the labels (dog and cat); however, they did show a preference when ‘cow’ was requested but not available. There were no differences based on prior overextension performance in production. It is concluded that overextensions in production are not diagnostic of children's underlying semantic representations, and that anomalous trials in comprehension provide useful information concerning young children's lexical entries.
