We agree with Pickering & Garrod's (P&G's) claim that theories of language processing must address the interconnection of language production and comprehension. However, we have two concerns: First, the central notion of context when predicting what another person will say is underspecified. Second, it is not clear that P&G's dual-mechanism model captures the data better than a single-mechanism model would.
我们同意 Pickering 和 Garrod(简称 P&G)的观点,即语言处理理论必须解决语言产生和理解的相互联系。然而,我们有两点担忧:第一,预测他人说话内容时所使用的“语境”这一核心概念没有得到明确说明。第二,目前尚不清楚 P&G 的双重机制模型是否比单一机制模型更能很好地捕捉数据。
