Update extra content to include blurb explaining a bit more. Blurb paraphases the following paragraph taken straight from Kaplan's P/S book talking about social interactionism
"...language acquisition is driven by the child’s desire to communicate and behave in a social manner, such as interacting with caretakers and other children. Interactionist theory allows for the role of brain development in the acquisition of language"
Two separate notes (nid: 1590819892845 & 1555292443390) cover interactionists’ proposed impetus to learn language. This note covers where interactionists fall on the spectrum of nature vs nurture. Nativists and Behaviorists fall on either end whereas interactionists are in the middle. If content is covered in another note, we usually don’t add that into a separate note if it serves a different purpose.
