SFB 1252: Project C07

Description

This collection contains the archival data of the project "Forward and backward functions of discourse anaphora (C07)", which is a part of the Collaborative Research Centre (CRC 1252): Prominence in Language. In phase I, the project investigated the backward and forward-directed functions of referential expressions through behavioural measures and assessed the temporal dynamics of the underlying processes by means of event-related potentials. They also compared the interpretive preferences and forward potential of personal and demonstrative pronouns in German and studied how these discrete processes were influenced by potential prominence-lending cues, including thematic role (or its subfeatures), animacy, grammatical function and topicality. In phase II, project C07 investigates the fine-grained nature of prominence relations between referential expressions. It examines the interpretive preferences and the forward potential of different anaphoric expressions – with a particular focus on demonstratives – in contexts with more than two antecedents, using behavioural methods. It also assesses the temporal dynamics of the underlying processes by means of event-related potentials. It asks how backward and forward referential functions are influenced by potential prominence-lending cues from different linguistic levels (sentence, discourse and prosody).
