“…for a clear discussion of the development of Poverty of the Stimulus ideas. given infants’ increasing language-specific sophistication by 9–12 months (e.g. Shady, 1996; Werker & Tees, 1984), may imply that AD speech begins to play a role in infants’ development before the second year of life.”

“Hoff (2006) argues that while all linguistic environments (presumably with the exception of rare cases such as the case study just described) support language acquisition, differences across environments produce differences in the speed and developmental course of that acquisition.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
