Abstract
The induction of linguistic knowledge displayed by children is perhaps one of the most puzzling aspects of learning performance, because of the intricacies and complexities of language and also because of the unerring accuracy with which most people seem to approximate the same linguistic structure. The latter observation suggests that language learning depends on universal features of the learning process. The feature authors examine here is the short term memory (STM) span. If STM is relevant in language acquisition then they expect language structure to reflect the STM span. In other words, the STM span will be reflected in language only insofar that it is a relevant aspect of the language learning problem.
