Title

Two-Stage Model of Cognitive Development

Description

This model depends on factoring out those features of the environment that are constant, or ‘reliably present’ in every conceivable developmental context, from those that represent a source of ‘variable input’ from one context to another. Only the former are relevant in the first stage (the construction of innate mechanisms such as the ‘language acquisition device’); only the latter are relevant in the second (the acquisition of specific cultural competencies such as the ability to speak a particular language or languages).
