Victoria Leonetti-Escandell, Jacopo Torregrossa

Victoria Leonetti-Escandell is a PhD student at Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM) and she teaches Italian at the Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia (UNED). Her current investigation is focused on reference management in Spanish and Italian monolingual and bilingual speakers. Her aim is to understand anaphora resolution in pro-drop languages considering different aspects of language together: from more internal, such as grammatical aspects (syntax, morphology) to more external ones, such as pragmatics or extra-linguistic elements (world knowledge), as well as the most cognitive part of acquisition. In addition, she has worked on the semantics of bare nouns and on Information Structure.
