It has been noted for a number of languages that the speaker judgments concerning binding possibilities are susceptible to linear order variations (eg Hindi (Mahajan, 1990), Japanese

Intonation structure and intonation in Svo and Ovs sentences in spoken Russian Ghinda, Elena; Zeyrek Bozşahin, Deniz; Department of Cognitive Sciences (2010) The purpose of this thesis is to examine the difference between SVO and OVS sentences in spoken Russian, which is a language with flexible word order although the basic order is SVO. Two experiments were conducted to understand the nature of intonation. Experiment 1 shows that the Subject appears as kontrast in OVS sentences, and as background in SVO sentences. The F0 curve rises in the Object position when the Subject is kontrast in OVS sentences. The analysis of the results of Experiment 2 shows that the ...
Single exponent in l1 multiple exponents in l2: consequences for l2 Kurumlu, Zehra; Gracanın Yüksek, Martına; Department of English Language Teaching (2013) The thesis hypothesized that when an exponent of a linguistic concept in the native language maps onto several different exponents in the target language, learners have difficulty when acquiring those structures in the target language. By contrast, when an exponent of a linguistic concept in the native language and its counterpart in the target language stand in a one-to-one correspondence, the possibility of making errors decreases to a considerable extent. In order to test this hypothesis, I examined thre...
Syntactic priming of relative clause attachment in monolingual Turkish speakers and Turkish learners of English Başer, Zeynep; Hohenberger, Annette Edeltraud; Zeyrek Bozşahin, Deniz; Department of Cognitive Sciences (2018) The purpose of this study is to investigate the syntactic priming of relative clause attachment in monolingual Turkish speakers and Turkish learners of English with different levels of proficiency in English. Turkish and English belong to typologically different groups of languages. Within the scope of this study, we investigate syntactic priming of relative clause attachments, which enables us to examine and compare the strategies employed for ambiguity resolution both in Turkish and English. The data was ...
Discourse Information Structure : a cognitive approach to language based on dynamic network representation Öter, Fırat; Temürcü, Ceyhan; Department of Cognitive Sciences (2015) The historical course of linguistics studies with an emphasis on meaning points out the requirement of a representational framework that is capable of forming a structure building bridge between the linguistic (i.e. symbolic) and cognitive (i.e. conceptual) levels. The present thesis aims to lay down some conditions for a comprehensive semantic theory, which is capable of representing all relevant levels of cognitive information involved in semantic processing. This attempt will give rise to a new, suggesti...
Processing of conditional constructions in Turkish l2 speakers of English Evcen, Ebru; Özge, Duygu; Department of English Language Teaching (2019) This thesis aims to examine whether Turkish L2 learners of English process conditional constructions in an incremental and/or predictive manner. An offline grammaticality judgment (GJT) task was devised to test L2 learners’ sensitivity to grammatical violations and an online self-paced reading (SPR) task was designed to find out whether processing patterns of L2 learners would match existing L2 processing accounts. We manipulated the Connector Type (unless, unless…not, if…not) and Context Type (congruent, i...
