Learning individual words and learning about words simultaneously
Children are guided by constraints and biases in word learning. In the case of the shape bias—the tendency to extend count nouns by similarity in shape—previous findings have revealed that learning plays an important role in its development (e.g., Smith et al., 2002). Some have proposed that children acquire inductive constraints like the shape bias by making inferences about observed data on m...
متن کاملWords, words, words
‘Words, words, words.’ This was Hamlet’s reply to Polonius’ question, ‘What do you read, my lord?’ (Shakespeare, 1603) [1].

This area consists of the language and the words that are attached to the tools, machines, systems, and operations with which human factors engineers are concerned.

One way of solving this problem early in development is to use prior knowledge in a word learning situation. Some have argued that young word learners have a number of “mapping” assumptions that reduce the overall hypothesis space, whereas others have argued that you...
متن کاملLearning words through overhearing.
Recent research indicates that toddlers can monitor others' conversations, raising the possibility that they can acquire vocabulary in this way. Three studies examined 2-year-olds' (N = 88) ability to learn novel words when overhearing these words used by others. Children aged 2,6 were equally good at learning novel words-both object labels and action verbs-when they were overhearers as when th...
