| Research Abstract |
The present study examined the incremental processing by Japanese native speakers through self-paced reading experiments and event-related potential experiments, in order to address the issue of what kind of structural conditions are costly in utilizing working memory resources. We focused on the processing of syntactic dependencies such as the negative polarity relation(sika. nai) and the wh-questions, and found that the processing of these relations showed different patterns from the processing of more basic, thematic relations, indicating that the former may utilize a different memory thread than the latter.
