TL;DR: The results support the use of personality-but not cognitive style-as an antecedent style on three measures of Internet use, although the effect of personality and cognitive style is not tested directly.

TL;DR: In this article, the evolution of the matrilineal societies of the northern Northwest Coast is discussed in terms of a structuralist approach which seeks their antecedent structure, which is derived from a synchronic analysis of these societies.
Abstract: The evolution of the matrilineal societies of the northern Northwest Coast is discussed in terms of a structuralist approach which seeks their antecedent structure. This hypothesized prototype is derived from a synchronic analysis of these societies. Neighboring Athapaskan societies retain this antecedent structure as their dominant structure.

TL;DR: In this article, the determiner selection in some anaphoric phrases depends on semantical or syntactical factors having to do with the relation between antecedent and anaphora.
Abstract: We intend to show that the selection of the determiner (le or ce) in some anaphoric phrases depends on semantical or syntactical factors having to do with the relation between antecedent and anaphora, as well as the form of the antecedent and of the anaphora itself.

TL;DR: The authors examined adnominal relative clauses in Asian Englishes, looking specifically at the distribution of relative words, and compared the varieties spoken in India, Hong Kong, and Singapore, using data from the ICE corpora.
Abstract: This article examines adnominal relative clauses in Asian Englishes, looking specifically at the distribution of relative words. Drawing on data from the ICE corpora, it compares the varieties spoken in India, Hong Kong, and Singapore. In particular it considers (a) linguistic factors such as the degree of animacy of the antecedent and the syntactic function realized by the relative word in the relative clause and (b) extralinguistic issues such as the effect of cognitive constraints typically associated with language contact situations and the impact of sociocultural factors, which can often determine differences between varieties. An examination of these issues uncovers specificities in the distribution of relative words that are related both to the different degrees of development of the corresponding local standard variety and to the interaction between the superstrate and the different substrate languages.
