本文分三个部分进行论证。首先，通过参照语义在转换语法中的作用表明，语义决定不是由句法或语义选择限制决定的，而是由说话人对所指对象的知识决定的。第二，研究表明，现有的词语-指称关系理论不足以说明上述语义决定的依据。最后，通过一个范例案例，提出了一种认知语义学理论中的指称理论，在该理论中，语义决定，即一个词的选择，是为了区分一个预期的指称和一些感知或推断的备选方案。其含义包括改变了意义的概念，陈述了文字和图片中的相关信息，关于深层结构假设的冗余性的假设，以及修改了语言和思维之间的关系的概念。
Presents an argument in 3 parts. 1st, it is shown by reference to the role of semantics in a transformational grammar that semantic decisions are not determined by either syntactic or semantic selection restrictions but by the speaker's knowledge of the intended referent. 2nd, it is shown that current theories of word-referent relations are inadequate to specify the grounds for the above-mentioned semantic decisions. Finally, by the use of a paradigm case, a theory of reference in terms of a cognitive theory of semantics is advanced in which it is shown that a semantic decision, ie, the choice of a word, is made so as to differentiate an intended referent from some perceived or inferred set of alternatives. The implications include an altered conception of meaning, a statement of the relative information in words and in pictures, a hypothesis about the redundancy of the postulation of deep structure, and revised conception of the relation between language and thought.(46 ref.)(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
