It was opposed to given-new information hypothesis. The first study investigated the different usages of "wa" and "ga" on the first sentences appearing in newspapers.The results showed that "wa" was much used in economic pages as "ga" was rather used in social ones.It suggested that the different usages of "wa" and "ga" were related to a writer's different attitude of mind. The second study investigated different usages by undergraduates when asked to select appropriate particles in given sentences and to write their reasons why they selected them.It suggested that the selection of the particles depended on how to lay emphasis rather than on given-new information.}, pages = {57--64}, title = {発話者の心的態度からみた助詞「は」と「が」の使い分け}, volume = {35}, year = {1987} }
