Problem: Gary's mother brings him to a university laboratory to participate in a study of language acquisition. She is surprised that the researchers play recordings of nonsense sentences, comprised of invented words such as boga, giku, kuga, and gapi. Gary is most likely participating in a study designed to a) minimize interference from parents during the procedure b) determine how much language input he has received so far c) test his ability to learn to recognize different kinds of recurring patterns d) see whether he will imitate these speech sounds.
