Their theory believes that language is habit information.

• A. Behaviorism
• B. Sociolinguistic
• C. Phonemic awareness
• D. Integration

Answer: (A)

Language as habit information points to behaviorism—the view that language is a set of habits formed through practice and reinforcement. In this perspective, speaking patterns, word choices, and grammatical forms are learned like other behaviors, shaped by repetition, feedback, and consequences rather than by an innate rule system or purely social factors. So the statement aligns with behaviorism because it emphasizes language as something learned through habit formation and conditioning.

Sociolinguistics, on the other hand, focuses on how language varies and changes across social contexts, communities, and identities, not on language as habitual responses. Phonemic awareness is about consciously recognizing and manipulating individual sounds in words, a skill related to reading and phonology, not a theory about how language is acquired as habits. Integration isn’t a standard framework for describing language development in this sense.
