Abstract
The question of innateness, which naturally arises in respect of the method of category construction proposed by vantage theory, is notoriously difficult. I will begin by discussing some of the problems inherent in this type of issue, along with attendant assumptions. Then I will turn to what might constitute possible grounding for vantage theory. © 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
