This paper examined how English native speakers (NS) and Korean non-native speakers (NNS) processed English island sentences differently, by taking an experimental design and its statistical analysis. Sprouse et al. (2012) demonstrated that NS clearly identified four types of island constraints in their language: Whether, Complex NP, Subject, and Adjunct. Kim (2015), on the other hand, applied the similar method and observed that Korean NNS did not identify Complex NP and Adjunct islands. This study performed the similar experiments in previous studies but it adopted the magnitude estimation (ME) method, rather than the Likert scale. The target sentences came from Sprouse et al. (2012), and the same set of sentences were used for both American NS and Korean NNS. A total of 100 students participated in the experiment respectively, and the acceptability scores were measured with the ME method. Then, the collected data were analyzed with a generalized linear model (GLM). Through the experiments, the followings were found: (i) Korean NNS clearly identified all of the four types of island constraints in English and (ii) DD-scores of Korean NNS were smaller than those of American NS.
Abstract
This paper examined how English native speakers (NS) and Korean non-native speakers (NNS) processed English island sentences differently, by taking an experimental design and its statistical analysis.

Kim (2015), on the other hand, applied the similar method and observed that Korean NNS did not identify Complex NP and Adjunct islands. This study performed the similar experiments in previous studies but it adopted the magnitude estimation (ME) method, rather than the Likert scale. The target sentences came from Sprouse et al.
