Dr. DeArmond's research/teaching interests are syntax and morphology, especially Government/Binding theory as it pertains to English and Slavic syntax.

He is currently writing an introductory textbook on syntax. Other works in progress include papers on passives, existential sentences, and genitive case in Russian and on empty operators and control. His article on "X-Bar Theory and Complements of Verbs of Perception" will appear in Glossa 17.
