Main Results:

  • Child language development is increasingly viewed through an interactionist lens.
  • Both innate predispositions (nature) and environmental input (nurture) are crucial.
  • Language learning integrates multiple cognitive domains.

Conclusions:

  • The field is converging on an interactionist perspective for child language acquisition.
  • Future theories will integrate nature and nurture for emergent language systems.
  • Language learning is a multifaceted process involving various learning domains.
