In this paper several questions to Stevens' quantal theory are formulated. The concept of quantal behaviour will certainly prove its applicability in a theory that relates phonetic and phonological units. However, we do not fully agree with Stevens' reasoning. One of our objections to his quantal theory deals with the difficulty of its verification. We argue that the definition of "quantal" as applied in the quantal theory should be sharpened for the sake of model verification. Moreover, to our mind it is not necessary to presuppose the existence of quantal-like properties of the articulation-toperception transformation for describing quantal-like speech features.
