Definition
monoclausal strategies for the causative construction in which the causee is coded differently depending on how much control the causee has in the outcome of the event. Example: in Hungarian, there is a contrast between encoding the causee in the Accusative Case when the causee has no control (Köhögtettem a gyerek-et 'I made the boy [acc] cough') and encoding the causee in the Instrumental Case when the causee has some control over the outcome (Köhögtettem a gyerek-kel 'I had the boy [inst] cough').
