通过分析家庭自然对话的内容和语用语境,研究了影响儿童欲望、情感和心理状态谈话早期发展的社会过程。研究人员每隔2个月从24个月到36个月观察6个二胎婴儿与他们的母亲和哥哥姐姐的情况。除了孩子们提到内心状态的频率增加之外,他们谈话的内容和背景也发生了发展变化。其中包括:更频繁地提及他人的内心状态,在反思性讨论和努力操纵他人的感受和行为时更多地使用内心状态,以及更频繁地提及内心状态的原因和后果。在母亲关于内心状态的谈话中也注意到类似的变化;母亲提及孩子以外的人的想法、感受和欲望的次数增加了,而她们在行为控制环境中使用这些术语的次数减少了。结果强调了社会互动在儿童发展对内心状态的理解中的作用。
The social processes implicated in the early development of children's talk about desires, feelings and mental states were studied by analysing the content and pragmatic context of naturally occurring conversations at home. Six second‐born children were observed with their mothers and older siblings at two‐month intervals from 24 to 36 months. In addition to increases in the frequency with which children referred to internal states, developmental changes were noted in the content and context of their talk. These included: more frequent references to others' inner states, increased use of inner state turns in reflective discussions and in efforts to manipulate the feelings and behaviour of others, and more frequent references to the causes and consequences of inner states. Parallel changes were noted in mothers' conversations about inner states; maternal references to the thoughts, feelings and desires of those other than the child increased, and their use of these terms in behaviour‐controlling contexts decreased. Results highlight the role of social interaction in children's developing understanding of inner states.
