本研究探讨了幼儿(N = 101,M-年龄= 4.14岁,SD = 0.57)的看法,他们的家庭获得的资源影响他们的看法,其他人的使用和分配熟悉的项目。使用一个简单的措施,包括贴纸,孩子们确定他们的家庭是低,高,或在中间的资源。然后,孩子们评估了一个场景,其中一个人从一个人那里拿走蜡笔,把它们给另一个人,以建立平等。认为自己在获得资源方面地位较高的儿童认为这是“不好的”(所有权优先)。相比之下,那些认为自己在获得资源方面处于较低水平或中等水平的儿童并不总是优先考虑平等或所有权。因此,幼儿不仅会思考他们的家庭拥有多少,而且这些观念也在他们关于公平对待他人的推理中发挥了作用。(C)2019爱思唯尔公司All rights reserved.
This study examined how young children's (N = 101, M-age = 4.14 years, SD = 0.57) perceptions of their families' access to resources affect their views on others' use and distribution of familiar items. Using a simple measure involving stickers, children identified their families as either lower, higher, or in the middle in access to resources. Then, children evaluated a scenario in which an individual took crayons from one person and gave them to another in order to establish equality. Children who saw themselves as higher in access to resources determined that this was "not okay" (ownership took priority). By contrast, children who saw themselves as lower in access to resources or in the middle did not consistently prioritize equality or ownership. Thus, not only did young children think about how much or how little their families had, but these perceptions also played a role in their reasoning about the fair treatment of others.
