Computer Enumeration of Significant Implicational Universals of Kinship Terminology
The discovery of general patterns and their subsequent explanation is a familiar method in linguistics and other cross-cultural research. This paper addresses the computerized enumeration of significant cultural and linguistic patterns, specifically implicational universals. We dispute published suggestions that the mechanical generation of universals is inadvisable, by arguing that such claims...
متن کاملFrom language-specific constraints to implicational universals
This article seeks to shed more light on the well-studied, yet still challenging, dative alternation. It starts from the cognitive-typological suggestion of Croft (2001, 2003) that language-internal variation is subject to the same constraints as cross-linguistic variation (the semantic map model), and that careful languagespecific research may therefore reveal facts about language in general. ...
متن کاملSignificant and Non-significant Implicational Universals1
Cysouw (this volume) argues against the use of implicational universals in linguistic typology. While some of the points he makes are valid, his argumentation is in other places somewhat confused. I attempt in this paper to give some clarity to some of the issues, drawing on examples based on my typological database (Dryer 1989, 1991, 1992, 1997, 1998), which currently contains data for over 12...
متن کاملDoes MaxEnt Overgenerate? Implicational Universals in Maximum Entropy Grammar
It goes without saying that a good linguistic theory should neither undergenerate (i.e., it should not miss any attested patterns) nor overgenerate (i.e., it should not predict any “unattestable” patterns). Recent literature has argued that the Maximum Entropy (ME; Goldwater & Johnson 2003) framework provides a probabilistic extension of categorical Harmonic Grammar (HG; Legendre et al. 1990; S...

چکیده انگیزه دلیل اصلی رفتارهای ما است. به نظر می رسد انگیزه جزء جدایی ناپذیر فرایند یادگیری باشد. ارزش ذاتی موفقیت تمایل به پیشرفت را در یادگیرنده ایجاد میکند. به عبارت ساده این تمایل انگیزه پیشرفت نامیده میشود. انگیزه پیشرفت را میتوان در احساس یادگیرنده هنگام چالش با درس های مدرسه، لذت انجام فعالیت درسی، یا حس کشف پاسخ مشاهده کرد.حتی ممکن است انگیزه پیشرفت را در تلاش یادگیرنده برای جلب تایید...
