Linguistic complexity: Locality of syntactic dependencies
This paper proposes a new theory of the relationship between the sentence processing
mechanism and the available computational resources. This theory–the Syntactic Prediction …

Processing subject and object relative clauses: Evidence from eye movements
Three eye-movement-monitoring experiments investigated processing of sentences
containing subject-relative and object-relative clauses. The first experiment showed that …

The extended argument dependency model: a neurocognitive approach to sentence comprehension across languages.
Real-time language comprehension is a principal cognitive ability and thereby relates to
central properties of the human cognitive architecture. Yet how do the presumably universal …

ERP effects of the processing of syntactic long-distance dependencies
In behavioral studies on sentence comprehension, much evidence indicates that shorter
dependencies are preferred over longer dependencies, and that longer dependencies incur …

Recency preference in the human sentence processing mechanism
Cuetos and Mitchell (1988) observed that in constructions in which a relative clause can
attach to one of two possible sites, English speakers prefer the more recent attachment site …

Subject-object ambiguities in German embedded clauses: An across-the-board comparison
This paper examines the processing of embedded clauses in German which are ambiguous
between a subject-before-object and an object-before-subject order. In an experiment using …
