This paper presents a self-paced reading experiment comparing the processing of subject-
extracted relative clauses (SRCs) and object-extracted relative clauses (ORCs) in supportive …

Contradictory results have been found in Chinese as to whether subject relative clauses are
easier to process than object relative clauses. One major disagreement concerns the region …

Studies from many languages consistently report that subject relative clauses (SR) are
easier to process than object relatives (OR). However, Hsiao and Gibson (2003) report an …

Chinese relative clauses are an important test case for pitting the predictions of expectation-
based accounts against those of memory-based theories. The memory-based accounts …

This paper reports results from a self-paced reading study in Chinese that demonstrates that
object-extracted relative clause structures are less complex than corresponding subject …

Prior research on relative clauses (RCs) in Mandarin Chinese has led to conflicting results
regarding ease of processing subject-extracted RCs (SRCs) versus object-extracted RCs …

This paper presents an experiment that compared high and low working memory span
readers' abilities to process Chinese subject-relative and object-relative clause structures in …

Two self-paced reading experiments investigated several factors that influence the
comprehension complexity of singly-embedded relative clauses (RCs) in English. Three …

A controversy in the sentence processing literature regarding relative-clause processing
was raised by Hsiao and Gibson's (2003) study of Chinese relative clauses. Their study …

A general fact about language is that subject relative clauses are easier to process than
object relative clauses. Recently, several self-paced reading studies have presented …
