我们报告的结果,从两个实验研究母语和非母语的德语的敏感性交叉限制代词的决议。我们的关键刺激句子中包含的人称代词在强(SCO)或弱交叉(WCO)配置。实验一采用阅读过程中的眼动监测和性别不匹配范式,考察了前置wh-短语是否会被认为是介于wh-短语和其规范位置之间的代词的潜在先行词。母语和非母语的读者最初都试图在WCO的共指,但不是在SCO配置,早期的性别不匹配的影响,在我们的WCO条件证明。实验2是一个离线先行判断任务,其结果反映了我们的阅读时间数据中观察到的SCO/WCO不对称性。总之,我们的研究结果表明,上海合作组织的限制立即限制代词的解释在本族语和非本族语的理解,并进一步表明,上海合作组织和世界海关组织的限制来自不同的来源。
We report the results from two experiments examining native and non-native German speakers' sensitivity to crossover constraints on pronoun resolution. Our critical stimuli sentences contained personal pronouns in either strong (SCO) or weak crossover (WCO) configurations. Using eye-movement monitoring during reading and a gender-mismatch paradigm, Experiment 1 investigated whether a fronted wh-phrase would be considered as a potential antecedent for a pronoun intervening between the wh-phrase and its canonical position. Both native and non-native readers initially attempted coreference in WCO but not in SCO configurations, as evidenced by early gender-mismatch effects in our WCO conditions. Experiment 2 was an offline antecedent judgement task whose results mirrored the SCO/WCO asymmetry observed in our reading-time data. Taken together, our results show that the SCO constraint immediately restricts pronoun interpretation in both native and non-native comprehension, and further suggest that SCO and WCO constraints derive from different sources.
