    Abstract

    Online wh-filler-gap dependency resolution can be characterized by the maintenance of the wh-filler, an active search for the gap and the retrieval of the wh-filler at the gap site (Wagers & Phillips 14). This study tested how wh-fillers are maintained in memory in two different WhFGD formations: "reactivated" WhFGD formation (the filler that is linked to the verb once, and is reactivated later) and "active" WhFGD formation.Taken together, information associated with the wh-filler is maintained when there is no need to reactivate the filler subsequent to the first gap, leading to the retrieval of detailed information and stronger agreement attraction.
