Children were trained to identify correct sentences by giving them examples of sentences from the different categories and asking them whether or not they were ‘‘said the right way” even if they sounded ‘‘silly”. Thus, children were required to make judgments of sentence grammaticality and to ignore semantic plausibility. Accuracy on a semantically anomalous sentence is associated with better executive control (Bialystok, 1988) and better attention to speech (Astheimer, Janus, Moreno, & Bialystok, 2014). The test included 24 sentences, with 6 exemplars of each type, counterbalanced so that children completed only one version of each sentence across testing sessions.
