These experiments examined whether syntactic assignment and meaning selection of syntactic category ambiguous words is based on semantic information in the absence of prior structurally disambiguating information. Readers' eye movements were monitored while they read structurally ambiguous sentences containing syntactic category ambiguous words and lexical semantic ambiguous words with prior semantically biasing context. The ambiguous words were either biased or balanced and they were compared to unambiguous controls words. Separate structural and semantic disambiguating regions followed the ambiguous words. The pre- and post-target context either supported the same interpretation of the ambiguous word, or different interpretations of the ambiguous word. Initial processing was similar for the syntactic category and lexical semantic ambiguous words. Readers spent additional time on the biased ambiguous words when prior semantic context supported the subordinate interpretation, but not on balanced ambiguous words or biased words with prior semantic context supporting the dominant interpretation. Examination of the post-target regions and rereading of the target word suggested that readers did not make a syntactic category assignment based on the pre-target semantic context. Greatest processing difficulty was seen when the post-target regions supported the subordinate interpretation of the biased syntactic category ambiguous words. A weighted delay hypothesis is proposed where the lexical access of syntactic category ambiguous words is influenced by semantic context in the presence of structural ambiguity, but syntactic assignment and meaning selection are delayed until structural disambiguation is reached.
