我们考虑幼儿对生物现象的解释和塑造它们的力量,使用基于类别的归纳任务,展示了城市儿童的人类中心推理。后续研究(包括我们自己的研究)对她的结果的普遍性提出了质疑,但他们采用了完全不同的程序,要么没有包括城市儿童,要么在包括城市样本时,未能重现她的原始发现。在目前对来自三个文化社区的4-10岁儿童的研究中,我们的程序更密切地遵循了凯里的方法,并将她的发现复制到了城市儿童身上。然而,他们对年轻的欧洲裔美国农村儿童和年轻的美洲土著儿童的研究结果却截然不同。这些结果强调了文化和经验的复杂互动的重要性——包括与自然世界的日常互动和对社区信仰体系的敏感性——在儿童对自然世界的推理中。
We consider young children's construals of biological phenomena and the forces that shape them, using category-based induction task that demonstrated anthropocentric reasoning in young urban children. Follow-up studies (including our own) have questioned the generality of her results, but they have employed quite different procedures and either have not included urban children or, when urban samples were included, have failed to reproduce her original findings. In the present study of 4-10-year-olds from three cultural communities, our procedures followed Carey's more closely and replicated her findings with young urban children. However, they yielded quite different results for young rural European American and young rural Native American children. These results underscore the importance of a complex interaction of culture and experience--including both day-to-day interactions with the natural world and sensitivity to the belief systems of the communities--in children's reasoning about the natural world.
