    • 1990, Helena Běličová, Ján Sedláček, Slovanské souvětí:
      Neurčenost referentu je totiž v tázací větě impulsem pro adresáta, aby referenční neurčenost - aspoň z hlediska mluvčího - odstranil.
    • 1992, Slavia, Volume 61:
      Determinovaná NP je obvykle definována jako referenčně užitá NP, která presuponuje existenci referentu ve společném univerzu promluvy mluvčího a adresáta (neboli v řečové situaci, na komunikační scéně).
    • 1992, Naše řeč:
      Jsou-li determinátory v singuláru, mohou, podle kontextu, odkazovat bud k jedinému referentu, anebo k většímu počtu referentů.
    • 1999, Vladimír Havlík, Mezi jazykem a vědomím:
      Bezpochyby neřeknu, že nerozumím tvrzení „Braque inicioval kubismus" jen proto, že je mi dostupný nanejvýš deskriptivní způsob identifikace referentu jména „Braque".
    • 2002, Česká literatura, Volume 50:
      Eliminace referentu (de facto jeho vykázání mimo oblast významového směřování) se stala programní součástí saussurovské strukturální sémiotiky.
    • 2013, Lenka Gulová, Radim Šíp, Výzkumné metody v pedagogické praxi:
      Pro rozpoznání referentu (předmětu reálného světa) je podmínkou sjednaná konvence mezi mluvčími. Pojmenování referentu je sociálním činem vznikajícím na rovině sémantiky.
