Separating Hierarchical Relations and Word Order in Language Production: Is Proximity Concord Syntactic or Linear?
Vigliocco, Gabriella; Nicol, Janet
Cognition, v68 n1 pB13-B29 Aug 1998
Addressed whether hierarchical relations and word order can be separated in sentence production. Assessed in two experiments whether subject-verb agreement errors require linear proximity of a so-called "local" noun to the verb. Found evidence for a stage in language production in which a syntactic structure is built prior to stage in which words are assigned to their linear position. (EV)
