Özet

The objective of this study is to develop a comprehensive taxonomy of 112 Turkish interpersonal verbs that denote implicit causality. This taxonomy is categorized into four distinct verb types: Stimulus-Experiencer (SE), Experiencer-Stimulus (ES), Agent-Patient (AP), and Agent-Evocator (AE), each comprising 28 verbs exemplifying its respective characteristics. The primary aim is to establish a representational scale for each category. The selection of verbs is informed by cross-linguistic studies that encompass a variety of verb types across different categories. To examine implicit causality biases associated with these verbs, a sentence completion task was employed. Participants were asked to complete sentences such as ‘‘Ali Ayşe’yi korkuttu çünkü …’’ (Ali scared Ayşe because …) to assess the causal attributions linked to each verb. The study also investigates the interaction between verb type, the gender of the participant, and the gender of referents in the sentences. The findings indicate that previous research on the implicit causality biases of verbs can be extended to Turkish. This classification serves as a foundational framework for future research, enabling a more systematic investigation of implicit causality in Turkish interpersonal verbs.

Abstract

The objective of this study is to develop a comprehensive taxonomy of 112 Turkish interpersonal verbs that denote implicit causality. This taxonomy is categorized into four distinct verb types: Stimulus-Experiencer (SE), Experiencer-Stimulus (ES), Agent-Patient (AP), and Agent-Evocator (AE), each comprising 28 verbs exemplifying its respective characteristics. The primary aim is to establish a representational scale for each category. The selection of verbs is informed by cross-linguistic studies that encompass a variety of verb types across different categories. To examine implicit causality biases associated with these verbs, a sentence completion task was employed. Participants were asked to complete sentences such as ‘‘Ali Ayşe’yi korkuttu çünkü …’’ (Ali scared Ayşe because …) to assess the causal attributions linked to each verb. The study also investigates the interaction between verb type, the gender of the participant, and the gender of referents in the sentences. The findings indicate that previous research on the implicit causality biases of verbs can be extended to Turkish. This classification serves as a foundational framework for future research, enabling a more systematic investigation of implicit causality in Turkish interpersonal verbs.
