Resumo: The on-line processing of temporarily ambiguous object relative clauses (relative clause/complement clause) is investigated in contexts that favor the incremental integration of information and the anticipation of the referent of a complex DP. The research questions are: Does contextual information eliminate ambiguity in favor of relative clauses? Does low level information (from the syntax/prosody interface) enable relative and complement clauses to be distinguished?  Or does minimal attachment prevail in the presence of structural ambiguity thereby inhibiting the incremental integration of information? An experiment is reported in which a bimodal task (verbal (oral) and visual stimulus presentation) with eye-tracking is carried out, followed by a comprehension task. The participants were adult speakers of Portuguese. The results suggest that structural principles prevail when there is temporary ambiguity. The conditions are discussed in which integrative and anticipatory processes can be conducted by means of two-stage processor.

Busca-se verificar se informação contextual elimina a ambiguidade a favor de estruturas relativas, se informação de mais baixo nível (da interface sintaxe/prosódia) possibilita a distinção entre relativas e completivas a despeito do contexto, ou se, diante de ambiguidade estrutural, prevaleceria o princípio da aposição mínima, que favorece o processamento de completivas com consequente inibição da integração de informação. Um experimento com tarefa bimodal (apresentação oral de estímulos verbais e de estímulos visuais) de rastreamento ocular seguido de tarefa de compreensão, conduzido com falantes de português, é relatado. Os resultados são sugestivos da prevalência de princípios estruturais diante de ambiguidade temporária. Discutem-se as condições nas quais processos integrativos e antecipatórios podem ser conduzidos, por meio de um processador que opere em dois estágios.Universidade Federal Fluminense2016-07-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/article/view/3337810.22409/gragoata.v21i40.33378Gragoatá; Vol. 21 No. 40 (2016): LANGUAGE STUDIESGragoatá; v. 21 n. 40 (2016): Estudos de Linguagem2358-41141413-907310.22409/gragoata.v21i40reponame:Gragoatáinstname:Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF)instacron:UFFporhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/article/view/33378/19365Copyright (c) 2016 Gragoatáinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessForster, RenêCorrêa, Letícia Maria Sicuro2019-08-23T11:07:13Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/33378Revistahttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoataPUBhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/oai||revistagragoata@gmail.com2358-41141413-9073opendoar:2019-08-23T11:07:13Gragoatá - Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF)false
