玛丽·S·提萨克和艾略特·图列尔。儿童的道德观念与审慎规则。儿童发展,1984,55,1030-1039。本研究评估儿童的道德和审慎规则概念。道德事件和审慎事件是相似的,因为它们可能涉及对个人的后果,但也不同,因为道德与社会关系有关,而审慎与社会关系无关。这项研究的目的是确定儿童是否区分伤害的社会互动、道德方面和非社会、谨慎方面。90名被试(年龄分别为6岁、8岁和10岁)接受了关于2条道德规则(与打人和偷窃有关)和1条审慎规则的访谈。得到3种评价类型:标准判断(评价、权威和规则偶然性、概括性)、论证和重要性归因。研究结果表明,大多数受试者认为道德和审慎规则是有用的,违反这些规则是错误的,行为的有效性与规则或权威无关,并且是可推广的;这些对道德规则的影响比审慎规则更强,更多的大孩子区分出这两种规则类型。然而,为道德规则辩护所给出的理由既关注结果,也关注社会关系的调节,而为审慎规则辩护的理由仅基于结果。道德规则被认为比审慎规则更重要。研究结果的模式表明,儿童区分了社会互动的后果和规则。
TISAK, MARIE S., and TURIEL, ELLIOT. Children's Conceptions of Moral and Prudential Rules. CHILD DEVELOPMENT, 1984, 55, 1030-1039. Children's concepts of moral and prudential rules were assessed in this study. Moral and prudential events are similar in that they may involve consequences to persons, but also differ in that morality bears upon social relations and prudence does not. The purpose of the study was to determine whether children differentiate between the social-interactional, moral aspects of harm and the nonsocial, prudential aspects of harm. 90 subjects (ages, 6, 8, and 10 years) were administered an interview about 2 moral rules (pertaining to hitting and theft) and 1 prudential rule. 3 types of assessment were obtained: criterion judgments (evaluation, authority and rule contingency, generalizability), justifications, and attributions of importance. The findings showed that most subjects regard moral and prudential rules as useful, their violation as wrong, the validity of the actions as noncontingent on rules or authority, and as generalizable; these effects were stronger for the moral than the prudential rules, with more older children distinguishing the 2 rule types. However, the reasons given in justification of moral rules focused on both consequences and the regulation of social relations, while justification for the prudential rule was based only on consequences. Moral rules were attributed more importance than the prudential rule. The pattern of findings indicates that children differentiate between consequences and regulation of social interactions.
