理解动词短语省略（VPE）需要重新评估最近处理的成分，这通常需要从记忆中检索有关被省略成分的信息。 AE Martin 和 B. McElree (2008) 认为，在理解过程中形成的表示是内容可寻址的，并且 VPE 前因是通过依赖于线索的直接访问指针而不是通过搜索过程从内存中检索的。通过操纵干扰材料的位置进一步检验了这一假设——无论是在先行词出现之前（主动干扰；PI）还是在先行词和省略位点之间进行干预（追溯干扰；RI）。速度与精度权衡程序用于测量 VPE 处理的时间过程。干扰物质的位置影响 VPE 理解的准确性：RI 条件产生的准确性低于 PI 条件。至关重要的是，位置并不影响处理 VPE 的速度，这与前向和后向搜索机制不一致。观察到的时间进程概况与通过线索相关的直接访问操作检索 VPE 前因的假设一致。（PsycINFO 数据库记录 (c) 2016 APA，保留所有权利）
Comprehension of verb-phrase ellipsis (VPE) requires reevaluation of recently processed constituents, which often necessitates retrieval of information about the elided constituent from memory. AE Martin and B. McElree (2008) argued that representations formed during comprehension are content addressable and that VPE antecedents are retrieved from memory via a cue-dependent direct-access pointer rather than via a search process. This hypothesis was further tested by manipulating the location of interfering material—either before the onset of the antecedent (proactive interference; PI) or intervening between antecedent and ellipsis site (retroactive interference; RI). The speed–accuracy tradeoff procedure was used to measure the time course of VPE processing. The location of the interfering material affected VPE comprehension accuracy: RI conditions engendered lower accuracy than PI conditions. Crucially, location did not affect the speed of processing VPE, which is inconsistent with both forward and backward search mechanisms. The observed time-course profiles are consistent with the hypothesis that VPE antecedents are retrieved via a cue-dependent direct-access operation.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
