Comprehension of Relative Clauses by Children Aged Five to Nine Years.
Fluck, Michael J.
Language and Speech, v21 n2 p190-201 Apr-Jun 1978
Indicates that object relative (O) clauses are learned after subject relative (S) clauses. Shows that children did not reliably comprehend O-clauses until nine years of age, two years after S-clauses. Suggests the need to attain a level of operational thought before O-clauses can be understood. (RL)
