母语习得者在掌握与约束原则B相关的属性方面有相当大的延迟，在6岁以后对代词可能的先行词表现不准确。大多数帐户将这种延迟归因于性能现象（缺乏实用知识，处理能力等）。在这篇文章中，我表明成人学习者不会表现出与原则b相同的问题。以英语为第二语言的中等水平成人学习者（讲法语和日语的人），以及以英语为母语的对照组，使用真值判断任务来确定他们对代词的解释。第二语言学习者在不允许代词使用本地先行词方面的表现与母语人士相似，这表明B原则在成人习得中没有问题，而在儿童习得中则相反。
L1 acquirers experience considerable delays in mastering properties related to Binding Principle B, performing inaccurately with respect to possible antecedents for pronouns well after the age of 6. Most accounts attribute this delay to performance phenomena (lack of pragmatic knowledge, processing capacity, etc.). In this article, I show that adult learners do not exhibit the same kinds of problems with Principle B. Intermediate-level adult learners of English as a second language (French and Japanese speakers), as well as a native-speaker control group, were tested using a truth value judgement task to determine their interpretations of pronouns. The L2 learners performed like native speakers in disallowing local antecedents for pronouns, suggesting that Principle B is not problematic in adult acquisition, in contrast to child acquisition.
