At a young age, a matter of months can bring about substantial development, therefore, it's not surprising that the impact of relative-age on educational attainments is a much debated topic. A recent newspaper article was titled: "An age-old problem: Why can't summer-born children start school later?" (Cassidy, 2014). In the UK, children begin school aged five. However, there can

    Applying the sports analysis on relative age to academics is quickly revealed to be a flawed approach. In athletics, it’s simple; if you’re older, bigger, and stronger, you can probably hit a baseball a longer way than your smaller competitors. However, the academic playing field has a tendency to even the odds. At first glance, there is some evidence that the redshirted children perform better initially (Zill, Loomis, & West, 1997, p. 40). However, unlike in sports, the effect doesn’t last.

    The elicitation task used in this study successfully instigated the production of relative clauses in the two groups of children and adults. There was no significant difference between the two groups of children in the use of RCs, although there was between the adults and children. Therefore, the children may have been too old to show the effect of developmental acquisition in the age range 5 to 8. As previous researchers have found (Utzeri, 2007; Tomasello, 2000; Diessel

    pitch is different. In contrast, songbirds show a tendency to perceive sound in terms of absolute rather than relative pitch (Hulse & Cynx, 1985). While this difference has long been thought to reflect fixed genetic differences in the neural processing of sound between the two groups, we explore the possibility that these distinct human and avian tendencies arise due to the importance of relative and absolute pitch to communicative ontogeny in the two groups. Our proposed experiments explore the extent
