Abstract

In these comments the writer considers the subject of linguistic meanings, rather than the psychology of meanings in general. He further distinguishes between the treatment of meanings by general linguists and by psychological linguists. Further, there is a sharp separation between the attitudes of mentalistic and naturalistic psychologists with respect to meanings in psychological linguistics.
