In some articles like “ Formal Analysis and Functional Analysis of
Verbal Behavior: Notes on the Debate between Chomsky and Skinner”
(1976) and “The case against B. F. Skinner 45 years later: An
encounter with N. Chomsky” (2006) we can appreciate that in a book
in which some theories developed by a prestigious psychologist are
consistently supported, the idea that the veracity of the arguments is
doubted may be contradictory. In this case, in 1957 when this book
was published, the way in which this author described verbal behavior
was not in question. Some of the reasons could be his reputation or the
detailed way of explaining concepts through examples by laboratory
experiments. Skinner's “Verbal Behavior” explains the Behaviorist
Theory that expresses the way language is acquired in childhood.
Through this research, the most relevant aspects of each chapter are
provided, showing the author's coherence. Each point is questioned by
a linguist named Noam Chomsky, bringing his own arguments and
deconstructing it through Innatism. For this linguist, children are
biologically prepared to learn a language and the environment is a
contribution. In 1959, Chomsky published his review of the book and
was supported by a great part of the population. In order to know the
trajectory of each one in life and their professional achievements, the
biography of both is explained in detail. In addition, it includes a
linguistic evolution that allows us to locate this fact and some
methods, theories or important concepts in the course of linguistics. [-]
