| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research focused on the establishment process of linguistic dependencies. First, we examined the interaction in the processing of two types of dependency, the wh-Q dependency and the filler-gap dependency. The experimental results showed that the wh-Q dependency was processed preferentially to the filler-gap dependency. Second, we considered whether the structural distance between two elements is a crucial factor in the processing difficulty of Japanese relative clauses. Our experiment showed that, under certain condition, the structural distance is not a determinant of the processing difficulty. Instead, the predictability of the structure would affect the processing difficulty of the relative clause of Japanese.
