摘要：Which came first: the chicken or the egg? This question has perplexed professional thinkers for thousands of years and some version of the question can be found across a multitude of academic disciplines in modern times. Taken as a whole, theoretical developments in our thinking about the origins of equivalence relations have posed a sort-of chicken and egg problem. Which came first: equivalence relations or verbal behavior? Is the ability to behave [simultaneously] as a speaker and a listener necessary for the development of equivalence relations (cf. S. C. Hayes, 1991; Horne & Lowe, 1996)? Or, is the capacity to develop equivalence relations necessary for the development of speaker and listener repertoires (cf. L. J. Hayes, 1996; Sidman, 2000)?
