Pasha Koval is a Research Fellow at New York University Abu Dhabi, focusing on theoretical and experimental syntax, psycholinguistics, and the interplay between hierarchical structure and linear speech in human language. His research advocates for the strong null hypothesis that syntactic computations are independent of linear information, with precedence relations determined solely by hierarchical structures.
His academic journey includes a Ph.D. and M.A. from the University of Connecticut, and an M.A. from Lomonosov Moscow State University.
Koval’s work involves experimental syntax methods to test predictions of syntactic theories, particularly those related to rightward movement and linearization processes. He is affiliated with Jon Sprouse’s lab, where he contributes to empirical studies in syntax.
