**Poster Session A** - Please leave comments on this page or reach out over email! Contact Email: worth@u.northwestern.edu Recent studies of negative polarity items (NPIs) have found that the illusion of grammaticality for these items is more restricted than previously thought. Replicating previous acceptability studies in eye-tracking, we find an illusion effect in the first-pass reading time at the critical region of the sentence containing the NPI. The timing of this effect suggests that NPI illusion is unlikely to be the result of a conscious repair-driven operation. The restriction of the illusion to relative clause subject negation disappears when relative clause object negation is tested with a baseline matched for clause structure, providing some cross-methodological support for the claim that negative quantifiers drive NPI illusion.
