Literature Review on Storage and Retrieval Models of Mental Lexical

心理词汇也称为内部词汇或者心理字典，指的是储存于大脑中的词汇。桂诗春（2000）认为研究心理词汇应该主要关注词汇是怎样储存在记忆里，又是如何被提取的？为此学者们提出很多不同的模型理论。本文从储存模型和提取模型两个角度着手，总结概括原子球理论，分级网络模型，扩散激活模拟，并行提取模型和窜行提取模型，深入讨论它们的研究现状，存在问题以及进一步的研究建议。总结得出随着这些模型的不断修正，他们当初所强调的假设越来越微弱，它们之间的距离也越来越短。

Gui Shichun （2000） thinks that the study of the mental lexicon mainly concerns how words are stored in one＇s memory and how words are, retrieved when they are needed in speech or writing. Thus researchers proposed many different model theories. And this paper concludes these model theories, their developments and problems, resulting that together with the improvement of the models, the researchers＇ differences and conflicts are becoming less and less.
