Subject-gap preference in processing of Korean relative clauses: An eye-tracking study
Lee,Miseon 한국언어학회 2009 언어 Vol.34 No.2
This paper investigates the comparative processing difficulty of dative and subject relative clauses in Korean, using an eyetracking method. Previous studies of relative clauses have concluded that an object gap is more difficult to process than a subject gap across languages. Two possible explanations for this subject-gap preference are that an object gap is a) structurally more distant from its head or b) linearly more distant from its head than a subject gap. The explanation in (a) predicts that a dative gap should be more difficult to process than a subject gap in Korean while that in (b) predicts the relative ease of a dative gap. The current results of response times and question-answering accuracy confirmed the subject-gap preference: that is, subject gaps were processed faster and more accurately. Eye movement patterns also showed a difference between the two gap types in the amount of active eye movements and fixation durations, indicating that a dative gap is more difficult to access and thus takes more time to process. Thus the current study provides support for the structural distance hypothesis.
Effects of Vocabulary Size on Anticipatory Sentence Processing in Korean Learners of English
Yuree Noh,Miseon Lee 한국언어학회 2016 언어 Vol.41 No.3
Noh Yuree & Lee Miseon. 2016. Effects of vocabulary size on anticipatory sentence processing in Korean learners of English. Korean Journal of Linguistics, 41-3. 359-378. The present study investigates whether and the extent to which nonnative speakers of English exhibit anticipatory processing of English sentences in comparison to native speakers (Borovsky et al., 2012), using a looking-while-listening paradigm. We also examine the relationship between the anticipatory behavior and vocabulary knowledge of English as a second language. College students with high-intermediate English proficiency participated in an eye-tracking experiment and an offline measurement of vocabulary knowledge. The results revealed that the participants anticipate upcoming words, thereby incrementally processing English sentences as native speakers do. In doing so, they also actively make use of combinatory information of semantic cues and real-world knowledge, having advantage of a larger L2 vocabulary size. (Hanyang University)
Targeted Panel Exome Sequencing in Suspected Monogenic Diabetes: Single-Center Pilot Study
Lee, Sangwoo,Lee, Gi Min,Lee, MiSeon,Lee, Rosie,Moon, Jung Eun Interdisciplinary Society of GeneticGenomic Medici 2022 Journal of interdisciplinary genomics Vol.4 No.1
Purpose:Maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is the most common hereditary form of diabetes mellitus (DM), with similar clinical manifestations to type 1 or type 2 DM, leading to diagnostic ambiguity. Despite increased genetic research on monogenic DM, studies with Asian populations are limited. Therefore, we investigated mutation in possible monogenic DM and MODY in Korean children and aldolescents. Methods: Targeted panel exome sequencing including 32 targets genes was performed for 41 patients with suspected monogenic DM at Kyungpook National University Children's Hospital. Results: Variants were detected in 19 patients, including those in known MODY-associated genes (HNF4A, GCK, HNF1A, CEL, PAX4, INS, and BLK) and monogenic DM-associated genes (WFS1, FRX6, and GLIS3). Conclusion: MODY variants were detected more than expected. Targeted exon sequencing is helpful in diagnosing MODY or possible monogenic DM patients.
Determination of Mother Centriole Maturation in CPAP-Depleted Cells Using the Ninein Antibody
Lee, Miseon,Rhee, Kunsoo Korean Endocrine Society 2015 Endocrinology and metabolism Vol.30 No.1
<P><B>Background</B></P><P>Mutations in centrosomal protein genes have been identified in a number of genetic diseases in brain development, including microcephaly. Centrosomal P4.1-associated protein (CPAP) is one of the causal genes implicated in primary microcephaly. We previously proposed that CPAP is essential for mother centriole maturation during mitosis.</P><P><B>Methods</B></P><P>We immunostained CPAP-depleted cells using the ninein antibody, which selectively detects subdistal appendages in mature mother centrioles.</P><P><B>Results</B></P><P>Ninein signals were significantly impaired in CPAP-depleted cells.</P><P><B>Conclusion</B></P><P>The results suggest that CPAP is required for mother centriole maturation in mammalian cells. The selective absence of centriolar appendages in young mother centrioles may be responsible for asymmetric spindle pole formation in CPAP-depleted cells.</P>
Incremental processing of negation: Evidence from Korean
( Miseon Lee ) 경희대학교 언어정보연구소 2017 언어연구 Vol.34 No.2
The present study seeks to investigate whether negation is incrementally comprehended in Korean. Many of previous behavioral and neurological studies have found delays and errors in the comprehension of English negation. However, more recent studies have reported that negative sentences are incrementally processed as fast and accurately as affirmative sentences, given a pragmatically felicitous context. This discrepancy suggests that the poor comprehension of negation is mainly due to the absence of a felicitous context. In line with this, our hypothesis was that pragmatic felicity could help negation processing by establishing expectancies for using negation. In an eye-tracking task, we found that twenty-four Korean-speaking participants were equally fast and accurate in comprehending both affirmatives and negatives within a discourse context. Fixation analyses further showed that shortly after hearing the verb in a scrambled sentence, participants distinguished between negative and affirmative interpretations. These findings support the hypothesis that given a felicitous context, negation is incrementally processed by rapidly using the polarity information of the verb. (Hanyang University)
