The relational autoclitic of order in English carries a heavy burden: roughly speaking, it must be clear that it is the boy who does the running and the store which is run.” (VB p335) The interpretation: In the relational autoclitic of order, the sequence of responses is an autoclitic response for relations between the constituent responses, Autoclitics by definition occur with other responses, how are the complex responses organized so the question of how complex responses are organized arises., Proposal: Syntactic sequencing and regularity can be explained by extending Skinner’s treatment of autoclitics, and his relational autoclitic of order Point 3e In VB, Skinner did not explicitly connect RAOs and autoclitic frames, but his usage of this term is consistent with the RAO., The term “frame” is a metaphor. Example: “Ali Baba might explain to a confederate ‘To open the door say Open, Sesame’ or ‘If you want to open the door say Open, Sesame!’ This will be effective only if the new listener possesses an echoic repertoire and has also been conditioned to respond appropriately to the autoclitic frame If . . ., say . . . " (VB p.359), Autoclitics usually thought of as simple responses e.g., Simple 'grammatical words' such as "but, of, that, no.", the question of how complex responses are organized arises. To address this Skinner introduced the “relational autoclitic of order” (RAO) and the “autoclitic frame.”, The position of boy at the beginning allows the listener to respond to it as the “agent” that performs an action. and The position of store at the end allows the listener to respond to it as the entity that undergoes the action – the “patient”, Autoclitic – a verbal response emitted under the control of factors affecting the speaker’s emission of a contemporaneous verbal response Note that Autoclitics usually thought of as simple responses, Autoclitic frames seem to be partially filled RAOs. and Can be considered response products of the same kinds of operants that sequence RAOs., Proposal: Syntactic sequencing and regularity can be explained by extending Skinner’s treatment of autoclitics, and his relational autoclitic of order Point 3d Autoclitic frame – a sequence of responses emitted with an association with one or more autoclitics, In VB, Skinner introduced the autoclitic frame soon after he presented the RAO. and The term “frame” is a metaphor., In the relational autoclitic of order, the sequence of responses is an autoclitic response for relations between the constituent responses In Skinner's example: The position of boy at the beginning allows the listener to respond to it as the “agent” that performs an action., Autoclitic – a verbal response emitted under the control of factors affecting the speaker’s emission of a contemporaneous verbal response i.e., A response “about” the response being emitted currently, Can be considered response products of the same kinds of operants that sequence RAOs. so Like RAOs, they are response products of operants that control the emission of response sequences., In the relational autoclitic of order, the sequence of responses is an autoclitic response for relations between the constituent responses Thus: RAOs imply that listeners learn to respond to sequences that have autoclitic functions in the utterance, Autoclitic frame – a sequence of responses emitted with an association with one or more autoclitics Note: In VB, Skinner introduced the autoclitic frame soon after he presented the RAO., Verbal Operants and Syntactic Constructions: English Noun Phrases Point 3 Proposal: Syntactic sequencing and regularity can be explained by extending Skinner’s treatment of autoclitics, and his relational autoclitic of order
