A marginally significant TYPE*GRAM*GROUP interaction (F1(1,48) = 3.6, p = 0.064; F2(1,508) = 3.8, p = 0.052) revealed that participants reacted faster to sentences containing patient subject violations than to the corresponding grammatical sentences (natives: F(1,46) = 16.76, p < 0.001; non-natives: F(1,46) = 5.49, p = 0.023).
