“…Indeed, the findings presented here suggest that prosody can play a facilitative role in the process of reference resolution as previously shown with NP anaphors (Arnold, 2008;Brown-Schmidt et al, 2005;Dahan et al, 2002;Eberhard et al, 1995;Ito & Speer, 2008;Sedivy et al, 1999;Venditti et al, 2003;Weber et al, 2006) and pronominal anaphors (Brown-Schmidt et al, 2005;Cowles et al, 2007;Solan, 1980;Taylor et al, 2009;Venditti et al, 2001Venditti et al, , 2002Venditti et al, 2003).
