Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate on-line comprehension processsing in terms of the referential resolution of pronoun. The important question of on-line processing is the immediacy of processing. The immediacy of processing is conceptualized not funtion of time course, but the satisfaction of multiple constraints. These constraints include gender cue of pronoun, antecedent case and pronoun case, In experiment 1, using sentence reading task, The main effect of gender cue and case constancy, the interaction of pronoun case and case constancy were obtained, In experiment 2, The replication of Experiment 1 was conducted and the same results was obtained, In experiment 3, using phrase reading task, There are no readig time differences when the phrase of pronoun was reading. But the spill-over effect of pronoun reading time to gender cue and pronoun case was significant. All experimental results ware suggested gender cue was powerful constraints to resolution, but always sentence topic and case constancy were satisfied. The immediacy of referencial resolution processing is not all-or-none, but incremental characteristic.
