前一章揭示了对于森特维尔的欧裔美国父母和老师来说，死亡是一个充满情感的话题。大多数成年人认为，幼儿没有情感或认知资源来应对死亡，因此应该远离死亡及其相关的仪式和表现。在本章中，我们将更深入地探讨死亡的情感维度。首先，我们将儿童书籍视为一种额外的社交环境，孩子们可以从中了解死亡。接下来，我们讨论另一个社交背景，即父母对孩子关于死亡的问题的回应。然后，我们检查儿童对死亡情感维度的理解，这反映在他们对假设的死亡情况的反应中。本章最后有一个简短的讨论部分。
The previous chapter revealed that death was an affectively charged topic for European American parents and teachers in Centerville. Most adults believed that young children do not have the affective or cognitive resources to cope with death, and thus should be shielded from death and its associated rituals and representations. In this chapter we delve more deeply into the affective dimensions of death. First, we examine children's books as an additional socializing context from which children may learn about death. Next, we address yet another socializing context, namely parents' responses to their youngsters' questions about death. We then examine children's understandings of emotional dimensions of death as revealed in their responses to hypothetical death situations. The chapter concludes with a brief Discussion Section.
