The relationship between the two is an intimate one, and their integration is a part of the developmental story of language acquisition in the second year that is not ordinarily taken into account. The affective lives of young children are typically ignored in child language research because we tend to stay within the bounds of one or another discipline. Even the study of language itself is typically fragmented, because we tend to study different aspects of language - vocabulary, syntax, semantics, pragmatics, phonology - as though they were separate domains.
The early gestures and words of infants depend upon such cued recall: waving "byebye" when someone leaves the room; looking up at a clock on the wall of the playroom and saying "ticktock"; climbing off the chair and saying "down"; and so on. In instances like these, the child has to have recalled something not there in the context, such as, for instance, someone leaving at another time and waving "byebye"; the clock on the kitchen wall and the word ticktock. In sum, the child's gesture or word is an expression of a mental meaning constructed out of data recalled from memory with the benefit of cues from the context.
Gibson was concerned with "the education of... " 2 Piaget was 35 36 The Emergent Infant concerned with the process of that education and changes in the developing mind of the infant that enabled it. Gibson's theory, then, is a theory of perception. 3 The major task of infancy is to become aware that the myriad sights and sounds that the baby sees and hears have a certain regularity and order. To that end, babies begin very early to attend to moving objects and salient noises. Gradually they begin to build memories of their perceptions, and these provide the background against which they attend to new objects that move and noises that appear.
