Other Children, Other Languages
Author: Yonata Levy
Publisher: Psychology Press
ISBN: 1134776934
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 432
Book Description
This volume investigates the implications of the study of populations other than educated, middle-class, normal children and languages other than English on a universal theory of language acquisition. Because the authors represent different theoretical orientations, their contributions permit the reader to appreciate the full spectrum of language acquisition research. Emphasis is placed on the principle ways in which data from pathology and from a variety of languages may affect universal statements. The contributors confront some of the major theoretical issues in acquisition.

Current Perspectives on Child Language Acquisition
Author: Caroline F. Rowland
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing Company
ISBN: 9027261008
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 342
Book Description
In recent years the field has seen an increasing realisation that the full complexity of language acquisition demands theories that (a) explain how children integrate information from multiple sources in the environment, (b) build linguistic representations at a number of different levels, and (c) learn how to combine these representations in order to communicate effectively. These new findings have stimulated new theoretical perspectives that are more centered on explaining learning as a complex dynamic interaction between the child and her environment. This book is the first attempt to bring some of these new perspectives together in one place. It is a collection of essays written by a group of researchers who all take an approach centered on child-environment interaction, and all of whom have been influenced by the work of Elena Lieven, to whom this collection is dedicated.
