Title Noninnatist alternatives to the negative evidence hypothesis
Date 1992
Description In this commentary we consider three issues. First, we suggest that Crain's definition of innateness is not biologically plausible. Second, we show how the criteria he uses as hallmarks of innateness can have alternative explanations. Finally, we reinterpret his research findings on grounds that do not involve innatist explanations.
