<![CDATA[This paper outlines the key features of discourse and psychological construct Psychology (PCP) in the past decades. This library research constructs its 59 related studies have been downloaded from the Google Scholar databases. The analysis in this study sees the crossroads between social constructivism and personal construct psychology (PCP) are increasingly being employs during the past decades. This convention is not only appropriate but seems to need each other. When construction sees cognition not as a person by any means leading to "behind" behaviour, but the configuration of the mind and sense that occur in action, the social context of the act that arises as an interest. At the same time, how cultural ideas or practices or "discourses" manifested in individuals and their actions, is very important. Therefore this study jump into conclusions that the discourse of psychology offers an opportunity to develop a coherent mix of social constituent ideas around the discourse, with PCP]]>

<![CDATA[In considering word formation in language development, there appear to be two central issues which can broadly be characterized as questions relating to (i) productivity, and (ii) constraints. This paper reviews one of the renowned articles which involving the theory of level-ordering that has three levels within the lexicon, children, recognize high-frequency words than low-frequency words written by Peter Gordon (1989), entitled "Levels of Affixation in the Acquisition of English Morphology." This study has three untimed lexical-decision experiments which were carried out with 5- through 9-year-olds of native speakers of English and found general support for a systematic relation between productivity and level assignment. The aim of this paper is to make sure the readers would understand what the article's researcher try to explain about the word-formation such as stem, the stem which add affixes of Level 1, stem which adds affixes of Level 2, and stem which add affixes of Level 3. Moreover, this article's references are accurate (valid) and well-argued. This article is highly recommended for word formation in language development because the researcher stated that children might have a significant part in this process. Therefore, this paper seen the word-formation will be rich in language development depends on how often people actively create words, for example, by combining stems and affixes in much the same way that they generate sentences.]]>
