Processing of prosodic cues: The effect of prosody on relative clause attachment
​

 Ambiguity resolution in relative clause (and also prepositional phrase) attachment has been widely studied. Many studies have also documented the role of explicit prosody, particularly prosodic prominence, on listeners' interpretation of an ambiguous sentence. In this series of studies, we extend this line of work by investigating the effects of both prominence and phrasing on listeners' relative clause attachments, using both online (eye-tracking) and offline measures. We also consider the impact of individual differences on attachment decisions. This work is in collaboration with Jason Bishop (CSI & CUNY Graduate Center) and Sun-Ah Jun.
