抄録(英) Language comprehenders mentally simulate detailed perceptual and motor features of described scenes (Barsalou, 1999; Glenberg & Kaschak, 2002). Recently, different groups of researchers have begun to examine what perspective understanders adopt when they perform these mental simulations (Bergen & Chang, 2005; Borghi et al., 2004; Brunye et al., 2009). Previous work has shown that personal pronouns affect the perspective that English speakers adopt during sentence processing. But no existing work has shown perspective effects in languages other than English. For this reason, it is unknown at present how simulation perspective functions in languages where personal pronouns can be omitted, such as Japanese. Our work thus addresses two questions: first, is simulation perspective affected by personal pronouns in Japanese, as it is in English? And second, in sentences lacking personal pronouns, do Japanese comprehenders adopt a perspective inferable from preceding discourse? Our results suggest that discourse context does not influence perspective in simulation performed while processing sentences without personal pronouns; the use of explicit personal pronouns is a critical factor in generating simulated perspective.
