项目摘要

One of the most fundamental and universal properties of human language is a phenomenon called displacement. We used multi-channel event-related potentials (ERPs) to identify the nature of this phenomenon with Japanese, an SOV language of relatively free word order. The ERPs of sentences of canonical word order (CC) were compared with those of non-canonical word order in two types of Japanese complex sentences ; namely in those which can be described as being in a middle-scrambled condition (MSC) and in those in a long-scrambled condition (LSC). The sustained anterior negativity (SAN) and the P600 in the pre-gap position were observed in the LSC, compared to the CC, and they are consistent with previous findings. The SAN, exhibiting a tripartite nature in morphology and scalp distribution, mainly reflected a storage cost of scrambled elements in sentence comprehension. The subsequent P600 had a left front-temporal maximum, distinguished from a posterior P600, taken as a reflector of the thematic role assignment in previous related studies. It is argued that the P600 in the present study reflects a cost of structural integration intensively depending on the case marker information. A compositional interpretation of sentence meanings was also observed, reflected in an anterior negativity at the post-gap verbal position, which cannot be differentiated at the pre-gap verbal position in the languages of SVO word order. The ERPs of sentences of right dislocated arguments were compared with those of the right dislocated adjuncts. It was found that right dislocated arguments elicited a left dominant positivity, reflecting a syntactic integration in sentence comprehension. The ERPs and the MEG investigated the processing of middle scrambled sentences. The large positivity with a left temporal maximum was elicited at the time window of 300-500ms, and the MEG also elicited an activation at around this time period.

人类语言中最基本，最普遍的特性之一是一种称为流离失所的现象。我们使用多通道事件相关电位（ERP）用日语（一种相对免费的单词顺序的SoV语言）来识别这种现象的性质。将规范单词顺序（CC）句子的ERP与两种类型的日本复杂句子中的非规范单词顺序的句子进行了比较；也就是说，在那些可以描述为中间造成的条件（MSC）以及在长期造成的条件（LSC）的情况下。与CC相比，在LSC中观察到持续的前静电性（SAN）和p600位于前间隙位置的p600，并且与以前的发现一致。 SAN在形态和头皮分布方面表现出三方的性质，主要反映了句子理解中炒元素的存储成本。随后的P600具有左前时端最大值，与后p600区分开，在以前的相关研究中被视为主题作用分配的反射器。有人认为，本研究中的P600反映了结构整合的成本，取决于案例标记信息。还观察到对句子含义的组成解释，反映在差距后的口头位置的前部负面性，在svo单词顺序的语言中，无法在差距前的口头位置区分。将正确的脱位参数句子与正确脱位的辅助词的句子进行了比较。发现正确的脱位论点引起了左派主导性的积极性，反映了句子理解中的句法整合。 ERP和MEG调查了中间炒句子的处理。在300-500ms的时间窗口中引起了左时间最大值的较大阳性，并且MEG在此期间也引起了激活。
