Description |

| Accuracy | Prediction | Description |
| 33.33% | (627,what_no-gap/6,obj)>(625,that_no-gap/6,obj) | We expect the object to be less surprising in the that_no-gap condition than in the what_no-gap condition, because an upstream wh-word should set up an expectation for a gap. |
| 66.67% | (628,what_gap/7,continuation)<(626,that_gap/7,continuation) | We expect the continuation to be lower in the what_gap condition than in the that_gap condition, because gaps must be licensed by upstream wh words (such as “what”). |
