摘要本研究探讨了中国儿童的母亲认知心智、母亲时间及其交互作用对抑制控制的预测作用。参与者是来自中国北京的88名幼儿（59%是女孩）和他们的母亲。母亲的认知心态，在母子互动编码和母亲报告每周互动持续时间在14，25和38个月的孩子的年龄。在25个月和38个月时，通过与年龄相适应的标准评估来评估儿童的抑制控制和语言。回归分析表明，在考虑儿童的语言和性别后，认知心智与母亲时间的相互作用与抑制控制同时和纵向呈正相关。具体来说，对于母亲谁花了更多的时间与她的孩子，认知心智积极预测抑制控制，而母亲谁花了更少的时间与她的孩子，这种预测是不显着的。这些研究结果表明，花大量的“质量时间”与儿童是关键，以促进抑制控制技能在幼儿期。
ABSTRACT This study examined how maternal cognitive mind-mindedness, maternal time, and their interactions predict inhibitory control in Chinese children. Participants were 88 toddlers (59% girls) and their mothers from Beijing, China. Maternal cognitive mind-mindedness was coded in mother–child interactions and mothers reported weekly interaction duration at 14, 25, and 38 months of children's ages. Children's inhibitory control and language were assessed by age-appropriate standard assessments at 25 and 38 months. Regression analyzes showed that the interactions of cognitive mind-mindedness with maternal time were positively associated with inhibitory control both concurrently and longitudinally, after accounting for children's language and gender. Specifically, for mothers who spent more time with her child, cognitive mind-mindedness positively predicted inhibitory control, whereas for mothers who spent less time with her child, this prediction was non-significant. These findings suggest that spending substantial ‘quality time’ with children is key to facilitating inhibitory control skills in early childhood.
