....of a previous behavior (Petrides, 1982) This suggests that what the homologous area contributes in humans is ability in conditional associations. Deacon (1992) offers some suggestive comments as to how this sort of computational ability can, together with a functionalist approach to grammar (Bates McWhinney, 1982), contribute to an account of the evolution of human linguistic abilities in terms of the coevolution of brain and language. Many of these theoretical proposals must be regarded as still tentative. From our perspective, though, what is most important in this work is its role as a model integrated ....

....here are more complex. The causal properties of the words are highly structure dependent and the networks allow many open (i.e. grammatical) states. This view of language comprehension emphasizes the functional importance of representations and is similar in spirit to the approach described in Bates MacWhinney, 1982; McClelland, St. John, Taraban, 1989; and many others who have stressed the functional nature of language. Representations of language are constructed in order to accomplish some behavior (where, obviously, that behavior may range from day dreaming to verbal duels, and from to asking directions ....

....(1991) criticizes the explanatory adequacy of OP theory, arguing that since OPs are very hard to falsify, they are useful only as generalisations of the data, not as a theory of LA. 36 MSc Dissertation 6.1. 3 Functionalism The central directive of the functionalist school of LA research (e.g. Bates MacWhinney, 1982) is that the form of a linguistic item should not be separated from its function, as is tradition in generative linguistics. The importance of function is argued to be central; thus the pragmatic context plays a crucial role in the acquisition of formal language properties. Linguistic competence ....
