“…Evidence for a preference for recent or local correlates has been observed in many different types of clausal ellipsis, including sluicing (Frazier & Clifton 1998, Carlson et al 2009, Harris 2015, 2019, replacives (Carlson 2002(Carlson , 2013, and let alone ellipsis (Harris & Carlson 2016. To take the case of let alone ellipsis, Harris & Carlson (2016) found that the vast majority (approximately 84%) of remnants were paired with the nearest correlate in corpora.…”

The study of clausal ellipsis in sentence processing has revealed that comprehenders are sensitive to multiple, sometimes conflicting, pressures when recovering elided content. This paper presents a pupillometry experiment investigating how the human language processing system responds to sentences in which the location of a pitch accent clashes with global preferences for local correlates. The results are discussed in light of existing literature, including the Enduring Focus Principle, in which locations for default pitch accent continue to influence focus-sensitive processes regardless of overt markers of focus.
