8至11岁的儿童（N = 250）在视觉和听觉模式下进行了一个单词接一个单词的句子任务。这些句子包括一个宾语关系从句、一个主语关系从句或一个连接的动词短语。每个句子后面都有一个是非题，测试第一个或第二个动词的主语。参与者还获得了两项记忆广度测量：数字广度和阅读广度。高数字广度的儿童在从主句到关系从句的过渡中比低数字广度的儿童慢得多。研究结果表明，限制性关系从句的在线加工存在U型学习模式。离线的准确性分数显示出不同的模式，良好的和差的henders的henders。可怜的考生回答第二个动词问题的水平一直低于机会。他们的答案是基于一种不正确的局部依恋策略，即把第二个名词当作第二个动词的主语。例如，在宾语关系句“女孩看到的男孩追警察”之后，他们经常对问题“女孩追警察”回答是。“有趣的是，低记忆广度的穷人使用本地附件策略的一致性低于高记忆广度的穷人，所有穷人使用这种策略的一致性低于较容易的句子。
Children aged 8 through 11 (N = 250) were given a word-by-word sentence task in both the visual and auditory modes. The sentences included an object relative clause, a subject relative clause, or a conjoined verb phrase. Each sentence was followed by a true-false question, testing the subject of either the first or second verb. Participants were also given two memory span measures: digit span and reading span. High digit span children slowed down more at the transition from the main to the relative clause than did the low digit span children. The findings suggest the presence of a U-shaped learning pattern for on-line processing of restrictive relative clauses. Off-line accuracy scores showed different patterns for good comprehenders and poor comprehenders. Poor comprehenders answered the second verb questions at levels that were consistently below chance. Their answers were based on an incorrect local attachment strategy that treated the second noun as the subject of the second verb. For example, they often answered yes to the question "The girl chases the policeman" after the object relative sentence "The boy that the girl sees chases the policeman." Interestingly, low memory span poor comprehenders used the local attachment strategy less consistently than high memory span poor comprehenders, and all poor comprehenders used this strategy less consistently for harder than for easier sentences.
