While Spelke provides powerful support for concept nativism, her focus on understanding concept nativism through six innate core knowledge systems is too confining. There is also no reason to suppose that the constitutes a principled reason for positing less innate structure in explaining the origins of concepts. Any solution to such problems must take into account poverty of the stimulus considerations, which argue for postulating more innate structure, not less.
虽然斯佩尔克为概念天赋论提供了有力的支持,但她通过六个先天核心知识系统来理解概念天赋论的方法过于局限。也没有理由假设,在解释概念起源时,构成了假设较少先天结构的一个有原则的理由。任何解决这些问题的方案都必须考虑到刺激匮乏的考虑因素,这些因素主张假设更多的先天结构,而不是更少。
