Offer Description

LUCET investigates the lexical, morphological and syntactic complexity of Italian and its relations with the processing difficulties encountered by students with typical and atypical development attending the last year of High School. The successful candidate will collaborate in the preparation of experimental materials to evaluate complexity in written texts in both production and comprehension, the coding of collected data, and the analysis of results. The research will analyse complexity at both the sentential level (with subordination: completive, relative, cleft sentences, and marked word order: passive sentences, sentences with topicalizations and focalizations) and the nominal level (complex determiners, quantifiers, partitive constructions).
