Abstract:

Developmental research has long focused on regularities in language
acquisition, minimizing factors that might be responsible for variation.
Although researchers are now increasingly concerned with one or another of
these factors, this volume brings together research on three different sources
of variation: language-specific properties, the nature of the input to
children across contexts, and several aspects of the learners themselves.
Chapters explore these sources of variation within an interdisciplinary and
comparative approach allying theories and methodologies stemming from
linguistics, psycholinguistics, developmental psychology, and neuroscience.
The comparative perspective involves different languages, contexts of use,
types of learners (first/second language acquisition, monolingual/bilingual
learners, autism, language impairment), as well as vocal and visuo-gestural
communicative modalities (co-verbal gestures, sign language acquisition). The
volume points to the need to enhance interdisciplinary research using
complementary methodologies to further examine sources of variation and to
integrate variation into a more general developmental theory.
