The representation and processing of measure phrases by four-year-olds

Year: 2009

Type: article

Abstract: In this paper we investigate young children’s understanding of Measure Phrases. We have narrowed our focus to so-called Attributive MPs such as 4-foot rope and 3-pound strawberries, where the MP appears in attributive position, because by four years of age, children demonstrate a mastery of a number of key linguistic components for interpreting such MPs.
