在生成语法的研究中，人们一直认为将假设最小化并消除冗余是可取的。遵循这一传统，乔姆斯基（1992）提出应从语法模型中去除内部接口层面，即D - 结构和S - 结构，因为这些层面在概念上并非必需。在本论文中，我表明为了分析日语被动句、罗曼语使役句以及轻动词结构，我们必须放弃将D - 结构作为格功能 - θ关系的纯粹表征。因此，我提出了与乔姆斯基无D - 结构的新语法模型相符的分析，并为拉森（1988）的θ - 角色赋值理论提供了支持，在该理论中，θ - 角色是在推导过程中被赋值的。此外，我还探讨了由这些提议所产生的理论和实证结果。在第二章中，我指出日语中的に直接被动动词具有双重特征，即被动词素 - en和get被动句中的动词get的组合功能。为了解释这些特性，我提出这种被动动词在推导的起始点触发被动化，但在推导的稍后阶段才赋予θ - 角色（星野1994b，参照鹫尾）
In the enterprise of generative grammar, it has been considered desirable to minimize assumptions and eliminate redundancy. Following this tradition, Chomsky (1992) proposed that the internal interface levels, D-structure and S-structure, should be eliminated from the grammatical model, because there is no conceptual necessity for those levels. In this thesis, I show that to analyze Japanese passives, Romance causatives, and light verb constructions, we must abandon D-structure as a pure representation of GF-q relations. Thereby, I propose analyses which are compatible with Chomsky's new grammatical model without D-structure, and provide support for Larson's (1988) theory of q-role assignment, in which qroles are assigned in the course of the derivation. Furthermore, I explore theoretical and empirical consequences derived from those proposals. In chapter 2,1 point out that the ni direct passive verb in Japanese has dual characteristics, the combined function of the passive morpheme -en and the verb get of the get passive. To explain these properties, I propose that this passive verb triggers Passivization at the initial point of the derivation, but assigns q-roles at a later point of the derivation (Hoshi 1994b, cf.
