Abstract	Previous research on 4-6-year-olds' interpretations of adjunct control has observed non-adult-like behavior for sentences like "John called Mary before running to the store." Several studies have aimed to identify a grammatical source of children's errors. This study tests the predictions of grammatical and extragrammatical accounts by comparing children's behavior on two truth value judgment tasks: a high-demand task, with a "true/false" judgment based on event ordering, and a low-demand task, with a "true/false" judgment based on the color of an item. Children's behavior is more adultlike on the low-demand task, suggesting that children's interpretations may be influenced by extragrammatical factors. Implications are discussed for children's behavior in previous studies and for the role of the linguistic input. (As Provided).
