言语的感知和产生是人类特有的适应性。这些适应所涉及的机制和规律是针对语言而不是一般的听觉现象的,这导致了言语是特殊的观点(SiS)。尽管SiS的支持者取得了进展,但一个小型但不断增长的“批评者”计划批评SiS招募非人类动物,如鹌鹑和栗鼠,并使用语音刺激的辨别任务,错误地推断出类似的跨物种表现的共同机制。作者认为,这位学者的反驳方案不仅必须证明行为的跨物种同构,而且必须证明共同的生物机制或共同的功能组织。反驳项目也没有。提交人进一步论证说,这位经济学家对节俭原则的呼吁失败了。尊重所有可用的证据会破坏证据主义,并支持SiS。(PsycINFO数据库记录(c)2016阿帕,保留所有权利)
Speech perception and production are uniquely human-adaptations. The mechanisms and laws that these adaptations implicate are tuned to linguistic rather than general auditory phenomena, leading to the view that speech is special (SiS). Despite the progress made by proponents of SiS, a small but growing" auditorist" program critical of SiS conscripts nonhuman animals such as quail and chinchilla and, using discrimination tasks on speech stimuli, incorrectly infers a common mechanism from similar cross-species performance. The author argues that the auditorist's refutation project must demonstrate not just cross-species isomorphisms of behavior but also either a common biological mechanism or common functional organization. The refutation project does neither. The author argues further that the auditorist's appeal to the principle of parsimony fails. Respect for the total available evidence undermines auditorism and bolsters SiS.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
