| Abstract(in English) | In head-final languages like Japanese, one can imagine that a lot of integration processes must occur at the predicate, and that the distances between the grammatically dependent words may increase the memory loads upon integration. Yet, some previous studies failed to observe such a distance/locality effect. For instance, Nakatani & Gibson (2010) observed no distance effect for regular argument-predicate integrations, whereas Nakatani (2009) reported a distance effect for the integration of a negated verb with a Negative Polarity Item, indicating that the distance effect may vary depending on the type of integration. The present study examined the distance effect between a wh-phrase and a predicate/Q-particle, and observed a fine-grained interaction between the effect and the type of the involved dependency. |
