在选择特定颜色物体的标准颜色时，儿童可能会使用言语中介，这是一种认知过程，通过这种过程，物体和它的颜色使用言语而不是图像表征来匹配[英国发展心理学杂志14（1996）339]。为了研究这一过程，108名2至5岁的儿童被要求识别11种颜色，并选择蜡笔为特定颜色的物体上色。典型的颜色选择显着预测的颜色标记技能以上的方差部分预测的年龄。孩子们也被要求解释他们的颜色选择。知道自己的颜色和谁着色规范的儿童提供了解释他们的颜色选择与口头调解一致。然而，高比例的儿童谁不知道一种颜色，因此不能使用口头调解，也给了复杂的解释，他们的颜色选择，如果他们着色的对象规范。这些研究结果提供了适度的支持的想法，即确定标准颜色的对象是一个口头的过程。(C)2003年爱思唯尔公司All rights reserved.
In selecting the canonical colors of color-specific objects, children may use verbal mediation, a cognitive process whereby an object and its color are matched using verbal rather than pictorial representation [British Journal of Developmental Psychology 14 (1996) 339]. To investigate this process, 108 2- to 5-year-old children were asked to identify 11 colors and to choose crayons to color pictures of color-specific objects. Canonical color choice was significantly predicted by color-labeling skill above the variance portion predicted by age alone. Children were also asked to explain their color choices. Children who knew their colors and who colored canonically provided explanations for their color choices consistent with verbal mediation. However, a high proportion of children who did not know a color, and thus could not use verbal mediation, also gave sophisticated explanations for their color choices if they colored the objects canonically. These findings provide modest support for the idea that identification of canonical colors of objects is a verbal process. (C) 2003 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
