The main aim of this study is to reconsider Tomioka’s (2007) pragmatic account of the lf -intervention effects (IE), and to claim that Polarity Sensitive Items ( psi s) are genuine syntactic interveners. I will examine the parallelism among psi s in IE configurations, which is distinct from other interveners, and further claim that the study of IE should not be monolithic, but hybrid: Syntactic lf -interveners ( psi s), blocking scopal interactions/Pragmatic interveners, causing illegal information structures. The predictions will be borne out that psi s actually cause IE in other contexts as well, which pragmatic accounts cannot explain ( Funakoshi & Takahashi 2014 ). Such hybrid perspectives bring back enormous findings on IE (e.g. lf wh-movement) to the field of syntax, without relegating all of them to pragmatics
