产出中的词汇表征理论提供了对词汇通达过程中信息激活方式的复杂解释（例如，Levelt，Roelofs，& Meyer，1999），但很少有人试图解释词条结构如何影响复杂表达的形成过程。本文首先概述了这一理论，然后报道了三个实验，探讨了对话中名词短语结构的启动。实验一表明，说话人使用了一个包含关系从句的复杂名词短语（例如，“红色的正方形”）的频率高于听到一个简单的名词短语后的频率，并且当中心名词（“正方形”）被重复时，这种效果得到了加强。实验2表明，当启动和目标包含语义相关的名词（例如，“山羊”和“绵羊”）。实验3表明，当启动和目标具有密切的语音关系时（例如，“船”和“羊”）。这些结果为我们的解释提供了支持，并表明句法编码可能不受语音反馈的影响。(C)2003 Elsevier Science（美国）。All rights reserved.
Theories of lexical representation in production provide sophisticated accounts of the way in which information is activated during lexical access (e.g., Levelt, Roelofs, & Meyer, 1999), but there has been little attempt to account for the way in which the structure of the lexical entry affects the formulation processes that underlie the production of complex expressions. This paper first outlines such an account, and then reports three experiments that investigated the priming of noun-phrase structure in dialogue. Experiment 1 showed that speakers used a complex noun phrase containing a relative clause (e.g., "the square that's red") more often after hearing a syntactically similar noun phrase than after hearing a simple noun phrase, and that this effect was enhanced when the head noun ("square") was repeated. Experiment 2 showed an enhanced priming effect when prime and target contained semantically related nouns (e.g., "goat" and "sheep"). Experiment 3 showed no enhanced effect when prime and target bore a close phonological relationship (e.g., "ship" and "sheep"). These results provide support for our account, and suggest that syntactic encoding may be unaffected by phonological feedback. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.
