In this study we explore similarity effects in the processing and comprehension of subject (SRCs) and object relative clauses (ORCs) in Greek as a first (L1) and second (L2) language.

Child Relativized Minimality and Grammaticality Judgement. [PDF]
Grammaticality judgements are the fundamental experimental source of generative linguistic theory. They may be difficult to elicit, especially in some populations, but generally they inform us neatly about what the grammar licenses or, on the contrary ...

Features matter: the role of number and gender features during the online processing of subject- and object- relative clauses in Italian [PDF]
In this study, we investigated whether different morphosyntactic features, i.e., number and gender, play a role during the adult online comprehension of subject relative clauses (SRC) and object relative clauses (ORC), in Italian. This study was inspired

Featural Relativized Minimality in child grammar: An investigation of Mandarin long and short bei-passives [PDF]
This dissertation interrogates the representation of syntactic locality constraints, specifically intervention locality, within child grammar. Our focal point is the Intervention Hypothesis, which suggests that children are governed by a strict version ...

The Labeling of Root Infinitives: A Split-Feature Inheritance Approach
Root Infinitives (RIs) are a non-target phenomenon in early child language, attested in several languages but argued to be absent in others, such as Italian and Spanish (Rizzi 1993).

How to Derive Non-Logophoric Backward Binding for Stative Location Verbs [PDF]
I provide new evidence that backward binding is not restricted to psych contexts, as commonly thought. Backward binding refers to a phenomenon in which an anaphor is bound by a DP below it, in apparent contravention of Principle A.

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

On the Representation of Implicit Arguments in Child Grammar: Short Passives in Mandarin and English
In this paper, we investigate whether Mandarin short passives contain an implicit external argument (EA; such as an agent or experiencer). Syntactic tests yield inconclusive results in Mandarin.
