An experiment replicating earlier research on the pronoun bias effect in reading comprehension, in which the pronoun "they" in an auditory fragment influences the syntactic analysis of an ambiguous expression, used a new technique in which words in a fragment are cumulated on an electronic monitor rather than being presented one by one. The first exercise contrasted sentences showing normal number agreement with virtually identical sentences in which a number anomaly had been introduced. The second exercise used differing assignments of reference relations. Evidence of the pronoun bias effect was found using this technique, and while it is not thought to be conclusive, it is distinct from the earlier experiment's results. This result suggests a different underlying link to the comprehension process; it suggests also that the pronoun bias effect is not an artifact of interruption of the context material in those experiments done with auditory contexts and the naming task.
