In another experiment scientists tested children with less familiar objects like a grenade versus coral. This time children under 6 did not tend to name the manufactured object as owned. But when the unfamiliar, artificial objects were referred to as “human-made,” the younger children tended to classify them as owned. The work appears in the journal Developmental Psychology (PDF.)

I read that to mean he thought the test was inappropriate for 3 year olds. If you "give" anything to a child that conveys the message that it is okay to them.
