Dopamine and Language Acquisition: A Conscientious Look
Journal Title: Journal of Language and Communication - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
Dopamine has long been known to be important for the reinforcement of learning. Although dopamine turns out to be in a variety of forms, most of which act as transmitters of neural signals that control the synaptic plasticity of the brain. The present study keeps a plausible look at the relationship between dopamine and language acquisition and implies finding ways in order to increase the very given hormone.
