  2. Errors in early word use - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Errors_in_early_word_use

    Overregularization research led by Daniel Slobin argues against B.F. Skinner's view of language development through reinforcement. It shows that children actively construct words' meanings and forms during the child's own development. [6] Differing views on the causes of overregularization and its extinction have been presented.

  3. Regularization (linguistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regularization_(linguistics)

    In overregularization, the regular ways of modifying or connecting words are mistakenly applied to words that require irregular modifications or connections. It is a normal effect observed in the language of beginner and intermediate language-learners, whether native-speaker children or foreign-speaker adults.

  4. Word learning biases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_learning_biases

    It is unclear if the word-learning constraints are specific to the domain of language, or if they apply to other cognitive domains. Evidence suggests that the whole object assumption is a result of an object's tangibility; children assume a label refers to a whole object because the object is more salient than its properties or functions. [7]

  5. Language acquisition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_acquisition

    Genetic research has found two major factors predicting successful language acquisition and maintenance. These include inherited intelligence, and the lack of genetic anomalies that may cause speech pathologies, such as mutations in the FOXP2 gene which cause verbal dyspraxia. The role of inherited intelligence increases with age, accounting ...

  6. Missing letter effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missing_letter_effect

    Klein and Saint-Aubin [17] proposed the attentional-disengagement model similarly includes aspects of the two earlier models but emphasizes the role of attention in reading and comprehension. In this model, letter detection errors increase, and the magnitude of the missing letter effect increases when there is a rapid attentional disengagement ...

  9. Cross-coupling reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-coupling_reaction

    Often cross-coupling reactions require metal catalysts. One important reaction type is this: R−M + R'−X → R−R' + MX (R, R' = organic fragments, usually aryl; M = main group center such as Li or MgX; X = halide) These reactions are used to form carbon–carbon bonds but also carbon-heteroatom bonds.
