What are the three studies used for alternative evidence of Gardner and Gardner | Savage-Rumbaugh Washoe teaching Louslis Pinker |
What did Savage Rumbaugh do? | Taught a bonobo named Kanzi language using a lexigram- repertoire of 500 words and showed a clear understanding of complex human sentences. |
savage rumbaugh linked to G&G | supports as shows animals can learn a language, increases pop v as was done on a bonobo as well as time v, done years later and obviously external reliability |
Washoe and Louslis | Washoe was given an adopted son after a number of failed pregnancies, just through observations Louslis had learnt more than 50 signs |
washoe and louslis developing G&G | supports, as Louslis learnt a language, increases ecological validity as chimp-chimp interaction (no human interaction) as well as reliability. |
Pinker | a native signer on Washoes observing team, wasn't as impressed with Washoe as people took Washoe scratching as a sign when it may have just been a response to a natural impulse |
pinker developing G&G | criticises as cannot distinguish between a sign and natural impulse therefore decreasing reliability. meaning its hard to establish a true cause and effect as dont know if she understands the signs |
