Discuss prelinguistic vocalization.
What will be an ideal response?
Answers will vary. B. F. Skinner (1957) stated that prelinguistic vocalizations such as cooing and babbling may be inborn. But parents reinforce children for babbling that approximates the form of real words, such as da, which, in English, resembles dog or daddy. Children, in fact, do increase their babbling when it results in adults smiling at them, stroking them, and talking back to them. As the first year progresses, children babble the sounds of their native tongues with increasing frequency; foreign sounds tend to drop out.
