This study showed an improvement with age in children's replications of sounds in a novel foreign language. The finding holds even when confounded age-related factors are controlled for. Some other studies have shown a similar, older-better effect, while others have shown the opposite: a younger-better effect. The conflict is suggested to be due to the social-psychological conditions of the testing situations
