Recency Preference in the Human Sentence Processing Mechanism.
Gibson, Edward; And Others
Cognition, v59 n1 p23-59 Apr 1996
Provides new evidence from Spanish and English self-paced reading experiments on relative clause attachment sites. Suggests that a principle like Late Closure is universally operative in the human parser. Proposes that a second factor is the principle of Predicate Proximity. Discusses the origins and predictions of the theory combining these two factors. (ET)
