The eighteenth-century Enlightenment was hence a crucial moment of change in early modern European history, influenced by a consecutive number...

Humanity remembers major scientific discoveries and some of them continue to influence the way we view the world today. For example, the accidental discovery of penicillin by Alexander Fleming and Newtonâs apple led to the discovery of gravity. These discoveries all have something in common - a brilliant mind and a stroke of luck (or divine providence). In a similar way, a series of coincidences led a young Charles Darwin to develop the theory of natural selection. This forever changed...

Introduction In the context of theories on child language development, the behaviourist theory of operant conditioning proposed by B.F. Skinner in Verbal Behaviour (1957), is one of the earliest, and arguably considered the most outmoded by many in the field. The basic principle of operant conditioning is that behaviour which is rewarded or reinforced will be strengthened (Jayasundara, 2018, p.247). Conversely, behaviour that is not reinforced will fade out in a manner akin to natural selection. In Skinnerâs view, parents...
