This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: BAAM 2017 Case for Syntax - 3, Reason number 6 An implication is that this analysis clarifies the stimulus control of complex verbal responses speakers produce, the sequencing of responses important because sequencing is consistent among members of a verbal community (speakers of a language). Thus, sequencing accounts for the regularity of languages (i.e., responses in a verbal community)., each constituent response in an autoclitic sequence is controlled by a specific class of stimuli, and each constituent acts as a discriminative stimulus for the relation between itself and other responses in the frame., sequencing of verbal responses can be accounted for behavior-analytically if autoclitic frames can be viewed as the products of sequencing operants. Note that autoclitics are often thought of as simple grammatical words, but autoclitic frames imply some sort of positioning of responses., syntax refers to the ordering of verbal responses in an utterance. To make this slightly more precise, syntax concerns the sequences of the components of complex verbal responses., complex responses can contain other complex responses. However, these complex responses are classes of autoclitic frames that "correspond" to the syntagmatic classes of the verbal community., sequencing accounts for the regularity of languages (i.e., responses in a verbal community). Note that Linguists typically describe regular sequences in terms of "rules", each constituent acts as a discriminative stimulus for the relation between itself and other responses in the frame. This is to say that the sequence of responses in the autoclitic frame acts as as an SD for the relations between the entities "tacted" by the constituent reponses., they are comprised of sequences of responses. Surprisingly, the response positions in an autoclitic frame can be realized by other complex responses., the position of responses in a sequence can be a discriminative stimulus for relations between the constituent responses of the sequence. This accounts for the regularity of autoclitic frames., in American linguistics, research has centered around finding innate properties of language. It is less well known that such theories have always had their detractors,, What is syntax? Simply put, syntax refers to the ordering of verbal responses in an utterance., Autoclitic frames are regular, and All well-formed phrases and clauses can be interpreted as autoclitic frames,, the various phrasal and clausal sequence types in the repertoires of verbal communities can be interpreted as classes of autoclitic frames. Therefore, it is shown that a behavioral account of syntax can account for the classes of syntactic constructions in terms of autoclitic frames., each constituent response within an autoclitic sequence is under the control of its relation to other responses in the sequence. In effect, the autoclitic sequence is a "tact" of the relations between the entities "tacted" in the constituent responses., Reason number 4 A corollary of this is that each constituent response in an autoclitic sequence is controlled by a specific class of stimuli,, Reason number 3 Because Autoclitic frames are regular,, syntax concerns the sequences of the components of complex verbal responses. However, the sequencing of responses important because sequencing is consistent among members of a verbal community (speakers of a language)., such theories have always had their detractors, and none of these theories have been proven despite 50 years of research., the sequence of responses in the autoclitic frame acts as as an SD for the relations between the entities "tacted" by the constituent reponses. In this way, the listener is able to respond more appropriately to the verbal stimulus.
