| Abstract(in English) | First of all, the very fundamental question, "why are we concerned with questions of language?", is asked. One of the most important purposes in answering this question is to shed light on our understanding of human nature. Throughout the course of psycholinguistic investigation, researchers have been interested in the relationship between the mental grammar and the actual parsing mechanism. As a model of human information processing, Frazier and Fodor's model (1978) is introduced. Basically, they proposed the "Sausage Machine" for the hardware and the "Minimal Attachment" (which is one instance of "Perceptual Strategy") as a software. The experimental results on gap-filling constructions in Japanese presented here support the claim that the parser makes use of information specific to a linguistic module. That is, the relationship between the parser and the grammar is supposed to be "transparent" in the sense that they are able to "see" each other. Based on this transparency, it becomes possible to clarify our linguistic knowledge through the investigation of the human parsing mechanism. |
