| Abstract(in English) | Koso, Soshi and Hagiwara (2007) examined word order alternation between a dative NP and an accusative NP in Japanese Ditransitive constructions using Event-Related Brain Potentials (ERP). They compared different lexical items and NPs with different animacy, an animate dative NP and an inanimate accusative NP. Their results might be biased by these uncontrolled factors that yield expectation for a specific predicate type. This study used ditransitive sentences with an inanimate dative NP and an inanimate accusative NP that are exchangeable without changed plausibility of sentences and recorded ERPs when the participants read the sentence phrase-by-phrase. LAN (Left Anterior Negativity) was observed when the participants read an accusative NP in sentences with Dative-Accusative Word order. This result suggests that canonical word order can be determined through interaction of multiple factors such as the predicate type and the noun phrase animacy. |
