This paper reports an experimental study on children's relative scope interpretation of negation and because-clauses. Conducting an experiment with a truth-value judgment task, we found that both children and adults exhibit a bias to interpret because-clauses outside of negation. This pattern contrasts with children's non-adult-like biases in negative sentences involving covert scope-shifting operations (e.g., QR, reconstruction), which have been extensively reported in the literature. Children's adult-like behavior in sentences with negation and because-clauses indicates that these non-adult-like biases cannot solely be attributed to difficulties with negation.
