我们报告了四个跨语言实验(西班牙语,意大利语和法语)测试的影响,形态音位性别标记的主题名词短语的生产上的性别协议。协议错误是使用一种方法,在该方法中,参与者被要求完成,与一个表语形容词,一个句子的序言。结果证实的作用,形态音位性别标记的协议。更确切地说,我们表明,这种作用随两个不同性质的因素而变化。第一个因素是结构性的,与标记在名词短语中的位置有关(冠词与名词)。第二个因素是分布性的,与语言中标记的有效性有关。协议生产的模型,提出了两个功能不同的过程中确定:功能选择,所在地的形态音位学的影响,功能复制,严格的句法指导下操作。
We report four cross-linguistic experiments (in Spanish, Italian and French) testing the influence of morphophonological gender marking in the subject noun phrase on the production of gender agreement. Agreement errors are elicited using a methodology in which participants are required to complete, with a predicative adjective, a sentence preamble. Results confirm a role for morphophonological gender marking in agreement. More precisely, we show that this role varies with two factors of different nature. The first factor is structural and has to do with the position of the marker in the noun phrase (article vs. noun). The second factor is distributional and has to do with the validity of the marker in the language. A model of agreement production is proposed in which two functionally distinct processes are identified: Feature selection, the locus of the morphophonological influences, and Feature copy, operating under strict syntactic guidance.
