| Abstract(in English) | Previous researches using event-related brain potentials (ERPs) have revealed response components that reflect the cost of the storage (sustained anterior negativity) and the syntactic integration (P600). The present study investigated the processes from concessive adverb tatoe (even if) to the concessive verb form V-temo in Japanese. The result showed that sustained negativity was elicited between the tatoe phrase and the V-temo phrase. On the other hand, there was no P600 effect at the V-temo position. This result suggests that the processing of tatoe-V-temo clauses does not involve the syntactic integration, which is consistent with the claim that unless a sentence constituent is displaced, syntactic integration does not take place (Ueno and Kluender, 2009). In addition, we propose that the sustained negativity observed in this study reflects the cost of prediction rather than storage. |
