  abstract  = {In this paper, we present a comparative analysis of statistically predictive
	syntactic features of complexity and the treatment of these features by humans
	when simplifying texts. To that end, we have used a list of the most five
	statistically predictive features obtained automatically and the Corpus of
	Basque Simplified Texts (CBST) to analyse how the syntactic phenomena in these
	features have been manually simplified. Our aim is to go beyond the
	descriptions of operations found in the corpus and relate the multidisciplinary
	findings to understand text complexity from different points of view. We also
	present some issues that can be important when analysing linguistic complexity.},
