Which theory of language development and acquisition includes the concepts of reinforcement, stimuli control, deprivation, and aversive stimulation? a. skinner’s idea of language b. jean piaget’s theory of cognitive development c. chomsky’s nativist approach d. bruner’s theory of language development

The answer is: a. Skinner’s idea of language

Skinner was a psychologists and one of the first behaviorists. In his language acquisition theory, he states that language acquisition is an environmental and social phenomenon; therefore, children acquire language through operant conditioning, which includes stimuli control, reinforcement (positive and aversive), and deprivation.

The correct answer is option A

The Skinner's idea of language was based on the behaviorist reinforcement principles which is associated with the words and the meaning.

The utterance of the words are reinforced on the child when he or she realizes the value of sentence formation, communication et cetera.

Example: if a child asks for milk and the mother smiles after the child asks for milk then the child will find his outcome with some rewards.

see the picture for the vector

the magnitude of the vector by pythagorean theorem

r = √( (-10)^2 + (3)^2 ) = √109

magnitude = √109 units

the direction angle between vector and x-axis is

tan^(-1)(3/10) = 16.699

so the direction is approximately 16.7 degrees north of west
