linguagem, Noam Chomsky, Teoria das Molduras relacionaisResumo
A “Resenha” do “Comportamento Verbal”, de B. F. Skinner, publicada por Noam Chomsky em 1959, criou uma cisão profunda e duradoura entre a Linguística e a Análise do Comportamento. Considerando as mudanças no estudo da linguagem trazidas pela Teoria das Molduras Relacionais (RFT) e a disposição explícita da Ciência Comportamental Contextual para colaborar com outras áreas do conhecimento, o objetivo do presente estudo consistiu em analisar a possibilidade de diálogo, identificando convergências e divergências, entre a Linguística de matriz chomskyana e a RFT. Diversos pontos de convergência entre ambas perspectivas foram encontrados, a maioria dos quais não seriam possíveis partindo dos pressupostos skinnerianos. Contudo, profundas divergências, principalmente de ordem epistemológica, persistem ainda. Portanto, apesar das aproximações mencionadas, não é claro como poderia ser articulada uma colaboração significativa e produtiva para ambas abordagens.
