한국어 원어민을 대상으로 제시된 주어, 간접(여격) 목적어, 직접(대격) 목적어, 그리고 동사를 자유로이 배열하여 문장을 발화하도록 하는 실시간 문장산출 실험을 실시하였다. 실험의 결과는 (i) 간접 목적어와 직접 목적어의 길이가 동일할 경우 간접 목적어를 직접 목적어 앞에 두는 어순이 선호되지만, (ii) 관계절의 수식을 통해 두 목적어의 길이를 달리 했을 경우 격과 무관하게 길이가 긴 목적어를 짧은 목적어 앞에 두는 어순이 선호된다는 것을 입증하고 있다. 핵어후치 언어에서 관찰되는 이러한 ‘long before short’ 선호도는 논항의 핵어들과 술어를 되도록 문장 끝부분에 밀집시켜 논항구조 처리의 효율성을 높이고자 하는 언어처리기제의 특성에 따른 것이라고 설명할 수 있다.
