Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how children and adults approach the revision of grammatical errors in writing, specifically focusing on different cognitive processes involved in detecting agreement errors.
- The research predicts that children will utilize a slower, more methodical process, while adults will rely on a quicker, automated one.
- Findings reveal that younger participants struggle with plausibility in sentence structure, leading them to take longer to identify errors, whereas older participants are more influenced by grammatical form rather than plausibility, indicating a shift to a faster decision-making strategy.
