Citations in the corpus

• What Sign Language Reveals about the Critical Period for Language (2009, background): “Detailed analyses of homesign show that deaf children combine points with iconic gestures in a rule-governed fashion to name things in their environment, make comments, and make their needs known to some extent (Goldin-Meadow, 2003).”
• How social contexts support and shape language development (2006, background): “The inventions of these children are a revealing window on the innate contribution to language (Feldman, Goldin-Meadow, & Gleitman, 1978; Goldin-Meadow, 2003), and it is telling, therefore, that none of these children has been observed to create a full-fledged language (Goldin-Meadow, 2003).”
• Regularizing Unpredictable Variation: The Roles of Adult and Child Learners in Language Formation and Change (2005, background): “…of grammatical structure, ignoring their input, that Bickerton hypothesizes to explain abrupt creolization (though see Coppola & Newport, 2004; Goldin-Meadow, 2003; Goldin-Meadow & Mylander, 1984, for the emergence of grammatical structure in home sign languages without linguistic input).”
