Is children's reading "good enough"? Links between online processing and comprehension as children read syntactically ambiguous sentences.
We monitored 8- and 10-year-old children's eye movements as they read sentences containing a temporary syntactic ambiguity to obtain a detailed record of their online processing. Children showed the classic garden-path effect in online processing. Their reading was disrupted following disambiguation, relative to control sentences containing a comma to block the ambiguity, although the disruptio...

متن کاملChildren’s and Adults’ On-Line Processing of Syntactically Ambiguous Sentences during Reading
While there has been a fair amount of research investigating children's syntactic processing during spoken language comprehension, and a wealth of research examining adults' syntactic processing during reading, as yet very little research has focused on syntactic processing during text reading in children. In two experiments, children and adults read sentences containing a temporary syntactic a...
متن کاملAmbiguity in the brain: what brain imaging reveals about the processing of syntactically ambiguous sentences.
Two fMRI studies investigated the time course and amplitude of brain activity in language-related areas during the processing of syntactically ambiguous sentences. In Experiment 1, higher levels of activation were found during the reading of unpreferred syntactic structures as well as more complex structures. In Experiments 2A and 2B higher levels of brain activation were found for ambiguous se...
متن کاملChildren's Processing of Ambiguous Sentences:
The present study investigates children’s and adults' relative clause attachment preferences in sentences such as The student photographed the fan of the actress who was looking happy. 29 six to seven year-old monolingual English children and 37 adult native speakers of English participated both in an auditory questionnaire study and in an on-line self-paced listening experiment. While the adul...
