Abstract

Negative polarity items are subject to so-called intervention effects (Linebarger 1980, 1987). Specifically, they are unacceptable in the immediate scope of certain non-downward-entailing operators, even if they occur in the scope of a (higher) downward-entailing operator. By studying the behavior of any in configurations with collective predicates, we provide new empirical arguments that the descriptive condition concerning intervention must be stated with reference to the content of the clausal constituents in which NPIs may occur, and not merely with reference to operators c-commanding them. This is in line with recent arguments for environment-based formulations of NPI licensing conditions (e.g., Homer 2008, Gajewski 2011). We conclude by discussing how the condition fits in with some recent theories of intervention (especially Guerzoni 2006, Chierchia 2013).

NPI、干预和集体

负极性项目受到所谓的干预效应的影响（Linebarger 19801987）。具体而言，即使它们发生在（更高）向下内倾操作员的范围内，它们在某些非向下内倾运算符的直接范围内也是不可接受的。通过研究任何具有集体谓词的配置中的行为，我们提供了新的经验论点，即与干预有关的描述性条件必须参照可能发生NPI的从句成分的内容来陈述，而不仅仅是参照运算符c命令它们。这与最近关于NPI许可条件的基于环境的配方的争论一致（例如，Homer 2008，Gajewski 2011）。最后，我们讨论了这种情况如何符合最近的一些干预理论（特别是Guerzoni 2006，Chiercia 2013）。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
