Abstract
This poster outlines research by Michael Tomasello and his colleagues (see Tomasello, 2000, for a review) concerning the nature of early language learning. It is argued that the data should not merely be seen as consistent with RFT, but as important evidence that verbal behaviour emerges in accordance with RFT principles.
