Abstract

Core share and HTML view are not available for this content. However, as you have access to this content, a full PDF is available via the ‘Save PDF’ action button.

I would like to begin by clarifying some technical points regarding learnability and Gold's theorem and will work my way around to advocating the power of distributed connectionist networks. I may wind up repeating much of what MacWhinney has already said, but I hope to do so in a manner that clarifies the status of and relationship between his seven solutions to the language acquisition problem.
