ELISSA thispaper suggests that there are constraints on learning required to explain the acquisition of language, in particular, maturational constraints. The evidence suggests that narmal language learning occurs only when exposure to the language begins early in life. With exposure beginning later in life, asymptotic performance in the language declines. This paper was supported in part by NIH grant NSl6878 to E. Newport and T. Supalla.
