Is it symmetric for both disjuncts? Is local accommodation within a disjunct possible (and if so, for which triggers)? And are there effects based on linear order in processing, or are they due to the projection mechanism?  I present recent results from a picture matching task in the covered box paradigm on &#8216;again&#8217; that suggest that a) projection is non-conditional from both disjuncts, b) that local accommodation is in principle possible even with a &#8216;hard&#8217; trigger such as &#8216;again&#8217;, and c) that access to local accommodation can be primed by preceding experimental blocks that force this interpretation. Two visual world eye tracking studies, on &#8216;stop&#8217; in the first disjunct and &#8216;continue&#8217; in the second disjunct, furthermore provide evidence that non-conditional global interpretations are at play in online processing. The study on the second disjunct also provides evidence that responses that are inconsistent with a non-conditional global interpretations are slower than ones that are, in line with previous findings in the literature that local-accommodation based responses come with a slow down in reaction times.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Speaker: Florian Schwarz (UPenn) Title: Presupposition Projection from Disjunction - Unconditionally Symmetric?
