By asking questions, and deciding if it was unintended. It might be easy, if for example they pointed at a different card from the one the called for, or if they were playing in a language they weren't familiar with, or it might be harder to determine.

Not allowing the Case Study 2 declarer to change her play will hopefully have the beneficial side effect of encouraging her to learn to claim when appropriate to avoid subjecting herself to future possible lapses of attention.

Players often say "spade" when they think it obvious they mean "high spade". Dummy normally reacts by playing the card they mean rather than the card called for, and the TD will usually allow it if called.
I am sure that a PP for dummy is routine.
