This paper investigates the prediction of syntactic structure during sentence processing,
using constructions that temporarily allow a sluicing interpretation in English. Making use of …

This volume brings together cutting-edge experimental research from leaders in the fields of
linguistics and psycholinguistics to explore the nature of a phenomenon that has long been …

This squib investigates a prohibition on sprouted remnants in cases of verbal Gap** with
an implicit argument in the antecedent. We explore both ellipsis derivations and Across-The …

When an elided constituent and its antecedent do not match syntactically, the presence of a
word implying the non-actuality of the state of affairs described in the antecedent seems to …

We offer an account of preposition drop under clausal ellipsis in terms of two language
processing principles: Minimize Domains and Minimize Forms. We argue that when …

This paper is concerned with case-matching effects under clausal ellipsis. We begin by
considering available crosslinguistic data that indicate that variation in case marking on a …

In cue-based content-addressable approaches to memory, a target and its competitors are
retrieved in parallel from memory via a fast, associative cue-matching procedure under a …

This paper examines the relationship between merger and sprouting fragments, which are
typically taken to involve clausal ellipsis. We argue that structural identity constraints on …

We compare the roles of overt accent and default focus marking in processing ellipsis
structures headed by focus-sensitive coordinators (such as Danielle couldn't pass the quiz …

We investigate whether grammatical information is accessed in processing noun phrase
ellipsis (NPE) and other anaphoric constructions. The first experiment used an agreement …
