In the paper by Hommel (2011-this issue), the roles of the theory of event coding (TEC) and the premotor theory of attention (PMTA) for the Simon effect were considered. PMTA was treated by Hommel in terms of the proposal that attentional orienting can be viewed as the preparation of a saccade towards a certain location, and was dismissed as providing no useful contribution for an attentional explanation of the Simon effect. Here we considered a more recent and broader conception of the PMTA, compared this approach with TEC, and confronted both approaches with a few studies focusing on the role of spatial attention for the Simon effect. It was argued that PMTA may account more easily for various studies examining the influence of spatial attention on the Simon effect. We concluded our paper by listing some elements that an overall encompassing theory on the Simon effect should contain.
在霍梅尔（2011年，本期）的论文中，探讨了事件编码理论（TEC）和注意前运动理论（PMTA）在西蒙效应中的作用。霍梅尔依据“注意定向可被视为向特定位置进行眼跳准备”这一观点来探讨PMTA，并认为该理论对西蒙效应的注意解释并无实际贡献。在此，我们考虑了PMTA一个更新且更宽泛的概念，将此方法与TEC进行比较，并让这两种方法与一些聚焦空间注意在西蒙效应中作用的研究相对照。结果表明，PMTA或许能更轻易地解释各种考察空间注意对西蒙效应影响的研究。我们通过列举西蒙效应的整体综合理论应包含的一些要素来结束本文。
