Document Summary

Psych156a/ ling150 spring 2012 review questions: poverty of the stimulus (1) terms/concepts to know: Are these inside or outside the set of sentences that are actually in english?) This is because we can generate an infinite set of items, but there is now way to actually remember the infinite set. The possible english set of sentences is a subset because we mentally know the rules and patterns that generate the items that are part of a language. There are an infinite number of ways to combine known english words into sentences and those that are real english sentences are a smaller group than those that are not english sentences. Children must make the right generalizations from data that are compatible with multiple generalizations. They do not single out the correct generalizations by themselves. (4) why can the data that children encounter be considered an impoverished data set? (hint: what does it mean to be impoverished?)
