A. Caramazza, A. Costa, M. Miozzo, and Y. Bi (2001) reported a series of experiments showing that naming latencies for homophones are determined by specific-word frequency (e.g., frequency of nun) and not homophone frequency (frequency of nun + none). J. D. Jescheniak, A. S. Meyer, and W. J. M. Levelt (2003) have challenged these studies on a variety of grounds. Here we argue that these criticisms are not well founded and try to clarify the theoretical issues that can be meaningfully addressed by considering the effects of frequency on homophone production. We conclude that the evidence from homophone production cannot be considered to provide support to 2-layer theories of the lexical system.
A. 卡拉马扎、A. 科斯塔、M. 米奥佐和Y. 毕（2001年）报告了一系列实验，这些实验表明同音异形词的命名潜伏期由特定单词频率（如“nun”的频率）决定，而非同音异形词频率（“nun”+“none”的频率）。J. D. 耶申尼亚克、A. S. 迈耶和W. J. M. 莱尔特（2003年）基于多种理由对这些研究提出了质疑。在此我们认为这些批评没有充分依据，并试图阐明通过考虑频率对同音异形词生成的影响能够有意义地解决的理论问题。我们得出结论，来自同音异形词生成的证据不能被视为为词汇系统的两层理论提供了支持。
