b. maybe children don't put in their best effort due to a lack incentives to respond accurately; they might do better if given a chance to win a prize
c. maybe children's failure to respond accurately has to do with being asked the same question twice or with the order of the options presented to them
d. just because children fail at the tasks doesn't necessarily mean that they don't have the capacity to learn how to do them
