在处理主谓一致的过程中,非主语复数名词跟在单数主语后面,有时会“吸引”与动词一致,尽管在语法上不允许这样做。这种现象产生了语意上的一致性错误,并增加了人们在理解过程中无法注意到这些错误的倾向,从而为句子加工过程中工作记忆中语法数的表征提供了一个窗口。然而,对这一主题的研究主要是在具有类似协议系统的相关语言中进行的。为了增加协议处理的跨语言覆盖范围,我们进行了现代标准阿拉伯语自定节奏阅读研究。我们报告了相对分句中稳健的协议吸引错误,这种配置对所有可能的词法化都不是特别有利于产生这种错误。特别地,我们检查了读者在动词前面有两个NP的句子中检索语法和非语法一致动词的主语控制器的速度,其中一个是局部非主语NP,可以作为成功解决主-动词一致的干扰。我们的研究结果表明,错误的频率受到吸引名词的复数形成策略的调节:通过后缀形成复数的名词具有较高的吸引率,而通过内部元音变化(ablaut)形成复数的名词具有较低的错误率和较小的阅读时间吸引效应。此外,我们还展示了一些证据,表明这些协议吸引效应主要包含在反应时间分布的右尾。我们还在ACT-R框架中提供建模数据,该框架支持这些裁剪模式的视图,其中它们以不同的方式指定数量,并评估语法和解析理论的可能表示的后果。
In the processing of subject-verb agreement, non-subject plural nouns following a singular subject sometimes “attract” the agreement with the verb, despite not being grammatically licensed to do so. This phenomenon generates agreement errors in production and an increased tendency to fail to notice such errors in comprehension, thereby providing a window into the representation of grammatical number in working memory during sentence processing. Research in this topic, however, is primarily done in related languages with similar agreement systems. In order to increase the cross-linguistic coverage of the processing of agreement, we conducted a self-paced reading study in Modern Standard Arabic. We report robust agreement attraction errors in relative clauses, a configuration not particularly conducive to the generation of such errors for all possible lexicalizations. In particular, we examined the speed with which readers retrieve a subject controller for both grammatical and ungrammatical agreeing verbs in sentences where verbs are preceded by two NPs, one of which is a local non-subject NP that can act as a distractor for the successful resolution of subject-verb agreement. Our results suggest that the frequency of errors is modulated by the kind of plural formation strategy used on the attractor noun: nouns which form plurals by suffixation condition high rates of attraction, whereas nouns which form their plurals by internal vowel change (ablaut) generate lower rates of errors and reading-time attraction effects of smaller magnitudes. Furthermore, we show some evidence that these agreement attraction effects are mostly contained in the right tail of reaction time distributions. We also present modeling data in the ACT-R framework which supports a view of these ablauting patterns wherein they are differentially specified for number and evaluate the consequences of possible representations for theories of grammar and parsing.
