Directionality Preferences in the Interpretation of Anaphora: Data from Korean and Japanese.
O'Grady, William; And Others
Journal of Child Language, v13 n2 p409-20 Jun 1986
Tests the prediction that children acquiring left-branching languages will exhibit a preference for backward patterns of anaphora by presenting data from Japanese and Korean which show the prediction to be false. Findings support the view that any directionality preference for anaphora is the same for all languages. (Author/SED)
