先前的研究发现，说英语的幼儿依靠事件图式知识来形成对象类别，并在口头任务中使用它们。本研究考察了韩国幼儿的类别知识。在实验1中，5岁和8岁的孩子在填空指令或分类指令下产生类别实例。5岁儿童在插槽填充条件下产生更多的实例，而8岁儿童在分类条件下产生更多的实例。在实验2中，给孩子们一个由填空类别项目或分类类别项目组成的单词列表，供他们自由回忆或提示回忆。对于5岁的孩子来说，在两种回忆条件下，填补插槽的类别都比分类学类别具有更好的回忆能力、更高的组织水平和更短的延迟，并且在提供脚本提示的情况下，能够提高回忆能力。这些发现支持了这样一种观点，即填空类别比分类类别更接近幼儿语义组织的分类结构，并且随着儿童的发展和学习，填空类别被组合成更大的分类类别。
Previous research has found that young English-speaking children rely on event schema knowledge in forming object categories and using them in verbal tasks. The present study examined category knowledge in young Korean children. In Experiment 1, 5and 8-year-olds produced category instances under either slot-filler or taxonomic instructions. Five-year-olds produced more instances in the slot-filler condition, whereas 8-year-olds produced more in the taxonomic condition. In Experiment 2, children were presented with a list of words composed of either slot-filler category items or taxonomic category items for either free or cued recall. For the 5-year-olds, slot-filler categories led to superior recall, higher levels of organisation, and shorter latencies than taxonomic categories in both recall conditions, and led to increased recall when script cues were provided. These findings support the view that slot-filler categories represent a closer match to the categorical structures of the young child's semantic organisation than taxonomic categories, and that slot-filler categories are combined into larger taxonomic categories as the child develops and learns.
