Dialect differences in statement verification among children.

Two verification tasks were designed, one in SE, Task 1 (e.g., You aren't a baby) and the other in BE, Task 2 (e.g., You ain't no baby). All subjects received both tasks. The two tasks consisted of true affirmative, false affirmative, true negative and false negative statements. All tasks were presented orally. The children were instructed to say "right" or "wrong" in response to each statement. Only verbal responses were scored.
