The project VER investigates the processing of relative clauses during normal as well as aphasic language comprehension. A crucial question is how processing complexity is determined by the interaction of syntactic and non-syntactic factors while understanding syntactically unambiguous and locally ambiguous relative clauses. Syntactically, the relation between the relative pronoun as a moved element and its trace plays a central role. In the literature, configurational properties of this antecedent-trace relation have been argued to account for differences in processing relative clauses with an initial subject or an initial object. The validity of this assumption will be assessed by the project. First, an additional syntactic property, namely the object type (accusative, dative or prepositional object), will be considered. Second, the project examines several semantic-pragmatic properties (animacy, pronominal versus non-pronominal NP, information structure) as well as the frequencies of different relative clause types in German corpora. The required corpus data will be obtained within the project.Different methods such as reading time measures, sentence-to-picture matching as well as acceptability judgments will be applied to investigate the interaction of the mentioned factors. Both the complexity of unambiguous sentences and syntactic preferences for locally ambiguous relative clauses are taken into account. By tightly interlocking experiments with unimpaired and aphasic participants, the project provides a differentiated analysis of the mental processes involved in comprehending relative clauses.

VER项目研究了正常人和失语症患者在语言理解过程中关系从句的加工过程。一个关键的问题是，在理解句法上无歧义和局部歧义的关系分句时，句法和非句法因素的相互作用如何决定加工的复杂性。在句法上，关系代词作为移动成分与其语迹的关系起着中心作用。在文献中，这种先行语-语迹关系的结构属性被认为是处理具有初始主语或初始宾语的关系从句的差异的原因。这一假设的有效性将由项目评估。首先，一个额外的句法属性，即对象类型（宾语，与格或介词宾语），将被考虑。其次，该项目考察了几个语义语用特性（生命力，代词与非代词NP，信息结构）以及不同的关系从句类型在德语语料库中的频率。本研究将在项目中获得所需的语料库数据，并采用不同的方法，如阅读时间测量、图片匹配和可接受性判断，来研究上述因素之间的相互作用。本文考虑了无歧义句子的复杂性和局部歧义关系从句的句法偏好。通过与未受损和失语的参与者紧密相连的实验，该项目提供了一个差异化的分析，涉及理解关系从句的心理过程。
