LAD. Innate. E.g. formation of past tense verbs 'runned'.
1 of 11
Skinner
Imitation. Positive/negative reinforcement. E.g. pointing at a cup, naming it correctly, then caregiver says, 'well done!'
2 of 11
Jerome Bruner
Combination of Chomsky and Skinner. LASS. E.g. if a child grew up with no caregiver then there would be no need for language.
3 of 11
Jean Piaget
Cognitive theory. Progression through 4 key stages. Processes based upon actions. Serialisation and object permanence.

DeCasper and Fifer
Back up Chomsky. 3-day old babies recognise their mother's voice.

Mehlar et al.
Back up Bruner. 4-day old babies can distinguish between utterances of their own language and another language.

Fis phenomenon.
Berko and Brown's research. Child labels a plastic fish 'fis'. When asked, 'is that your 'fis'?' child rejects it. When asked, 'is that your fish?' the child replies, 'yes, my fis.'. Shows cognitive ahead of pnological.

Wug test.
Berko-Gleason's research. 'This is a wug. Now there is another one. There are two...' Demonstrates how children pluralise words when necessary.
8 of 11
Virtuous errors.
Not mistakes, logical errors. Pluralisation 'mans' or past tense 'runned'.
9 of 11
Piaget's object permanence.
Knowing things still exist even though you can't see them. E.g. if a ball is covered up, it is still there and still exists. Child may not understand concepts such as 'dream' as they can't see it.

Nelson's four categories.
It's an example of lexical development. 60% of a child's first 50 words were naming words (nouns).
