- Abstract
The article discusses the reconstruction of anaphora during second language sentence processing. It states that increasing studies on second language sentence processing indicates that nonnative speakers (NNS) overuse information based on meanings. According to N. Chomsky's canonical binding theory, anaphor must be bound under a relevant local domain, a least projection domain which comprises anaphor or pronoun. It adds that binding locality causes reduction on the locality of movement.
