儿童的心灵接触有关的谈话已被证明,以促进幼儿的元认知理解,并引导他们的识字语言的模式,早在他们开始正式的识字教学在学校。在本文中,我们报告了一个纵向研究的22名母亲的心理有关的谈话时,他们的婴儿年龄分别为12,18和24个月。结果显示,广泛和稳定的个体差异,母亲的倾向,使用的自主性,心理状态和调制的确定性谈话,他们的婴儿在一个自由的游戏会议。随着婴儿年龄的增长,母亲对信念的谈论也在增加,受教育程度较高的母亲比受教育程度较低的母亲使用更多的心理状态和确定性调节谈话。这些研究结果进行了讨论,目前的理解的话语背景下,支持儿童的发展中国家的理解的心灵,并产生影响,幼儿教育学的设置,儿童在头两年的生活。
Children's exposure to mind-related talk has been shown to foster young children's metacognitive understanding and to orient them to the patterns of literate language long before they commence formal literacy instruction at school. In this paper, we report on a longitudinal study of the mindrelated talk of 22 mothers when their infants were aged 12, 18 and 24 months. Results revealed broad and stable individual differences in mothers' propensity to use encouragement-of-autonomy, mental-state and modulation-of-certainty talk to their infants during a free play session. Mothers' talk about beliefs increased with infant age, and higher-educated mothers used significantly more mental-state and modulation-of-certainty talk than lower-educated mothers. These findings are discussed in terms of current understandings of the discourse contexts supporting children's developing understanding of the mind, and implications are derived for early childhood pedagogy in settings for children in the first two years of life.
