本研究采用自定进度的阅读实验，比较了日语宾语间隔关系从句和主语间隔关系从句的加工难度。在英语和法语等具有名词后亲属的SVO语言中，宾语间隙RC的复杂性高于主语间隙RC，这是句子处理中的一个公认现象。有两种理论被提出来解释这种现象。一个是在资源方面，例如临时存储或集成成本。另一个是在提取的元素的嵌入深度方面。这两种解释都可以解释英语和法语的数据模式，因为线性距离方面的资源量与嵌入深度相关。在本文中，日本，一个SOV语言与prenominal亲属，进行了测试，以区分这两个成本指标。资源理论预测客体-间隙关系式更容易理解，因为差距和中心名词之间的插入词更少，而嵌入深度理论预测主体-间隙关系式更容易理解。结果表明，日本人的主语空缺关系式比宾语空缺关系式更容易理解。结果与嵌入深度理论一致。其他可能的帐户被认为是除了深度嵌入理论。
This paper reports a self-paced reading study that compares the processing difficulity between object-gap and subject-gap relative clauses (RCs) in Japanese. The higher complexity of object-gap RCs compared with subjectgap RCs in SVO languages with postnominal relatives, such as English and French, is a well-established phenomenon in sentence processing. Two theories have been proposed to account for this phenomenon. One is in terms of resource, such as temporary storage or integration costs. The other is in terms of depth of embedding of the extracted element. Both accounts can explain the pattern of data from Englih and French, since the amount of resource in terms of linear distance is correlated with the depth-of-embedding. In this paper, Japanese, an SOV language with prenominal relatives, was tested in order to differentiate these two cost metrics. The resource theory predicts object-gap RCs to be easier due to fewer intervening words between the gap and the head noun, whereas the depth-of-embedding theory predicts subject-gap RCs to be easier. The results show that subject-gap RCs are easier than object-gap RCs in Japanese. The results are compatible with the depth-of-embedding theory. Other possible accounts are considered besides the depth-of embedding theory.
