Unit 5 Verbal Behavior – Discussion

Part 0ne: How does the behavior theory of verbal behavior differ from the cognitive theory of language development? Provide an example from either your own personal/work experience or from the reading to support the behavior view of language. Chomsky stated that the behavior view was not possible since humans constantly create new sentences. How could a behaviorist (using the principles) explain the creation of new sentences? Part two: In this unit, you learned about mands and tacts. Selecting one of these, describe how this concept relates to verbal behavior and how an ABA professional would apply knowledge of this concept to the case of a child with a language deficit.
