Abstract

Roger Brown (1925–1997) was an American psychologist whose work contributed to the understanding of child development and, in particular, child language acquisition. He received his degree in psychology, and later started his academic journey at Harvard University in 1952 as an instructor in social psychology, before going to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). He spent five years at MIT before he returned to Harvard in 1962 as professor in social psychology. Brown's work on children's language development, specifically first language acquisition, motivated research on both first and second language acquisition in children and adults.
