    "title": "The Time Course of Anaphora Resolution",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "Anaphors, such as definite noun phrases and pronouns, are important contributors to discourse coherence. Anaphora resolution is the process of determining the referent of an anaphor in a discourse\nor dialogue. Models of discourse and sentence comprehension have made different claims\nabout the temporal relationship between the occurence of the syntactic and semantic analyses of the\nsentence and the process of anaphora resolution. The end-of-sentence hypothesis holds that\nanaphora resolution occurs at the end of the sentence, after the syntactic and semantic analyses are\ncompleted. The immediacy assumption holds that anaphora resolution occurs as soon.as an\nanaphor is encountered and is completed as m u c h as possible before further words are processed.\nThe cognitive lag hypothesis assumes that anaphora resolution starts when the anaphor is encountered\nbut is completed while processing further words in the sentence. A study is described that\ntraces the activation of a referent by its anaphor over a complete sentence. It demonstrates that\nanaphora resolution does not await the complete syntactic and semantic interpretations of the sentence.\nA n anaphor starts activating its referent as soon as the anaphor is encountered and the\nreferent stays activated until the end of the sentence. This result supports a particular version of the immediacy assumption. This is also interpreted in terms of a limited cache that stores the items currently in focus and that is updated at sentence or clause boundaries.",
