| Research Abstract |
When reading a sentence, it is harder to associate words that are far apart than words that are close to each other. There are different ways of measuring distance within sentences and factors such as number of words and discourse complexity are known to be involved. However, there has been little experimental evidence on the role of phonological weight. In this project, reading times to simple transitive sentences were compared to provide evidence that amount of phonological information needs to be taken into consideration when measuring distance between words.
