Memory of Formulaic Language

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

This contribution revisits the issue of differences between children and adults in their respective levels of language attainment. We start by summarizing how the differences have been explained in nativist and empiricist accounts. Our comparison of the two approaches focuses mainly on the role of input in building linguistic representations in lexical memory. We look at memory encoding at the neuronal level: we review our current knowledge of engrams, the networks of neurons participating in the formation of a new memory. The persistence of a memory (whether non-linguistic or lexical) depends on the strength of its underlying engram, and we list a number offactors that contribute to the strengthening of the connections between participating neurons. Apartfrom a number of factors identified in the extant literature, which we review here, we present one new candidate factor, previously unconsidered in the language acquisition literature. We propose that the strength of a memory trace depends on the learner&apos;s belief in the validity of a newly encountered idea. We argue that this factor may account for age effects in language attainment.
