偏見の発達とその進化的基盤の解明－比較認知科学のアプローチからの検討

我的研究旨在调查偏见与（1）发展（也就是说，孩子们什么时候开始表现出偏见？）; (2)进化（也就是说，偏见是人类独有的吗？），（3）神经机制（也就是说，哪些神经信号与偏见有关？）在发展方面，我发现6个月奥尔兹表现出偏见的证据。这比先前提出的偏见在3-4岁时出现的建议要早。至于偏见的演变，正在收集数据。早期的结果表明，黑猩猩和人类可能表现出类似的偏见证据。关于神经机制，我们现在正在测试儿童和成人。任何明确的结论都需要更多的数据。一旦完成，这些研究将揭示偏见是如何以及为什么发生的。

My research aimed to investigate prejudice in relation to (1) development (that is, when do children first start to show prejudice?); (2) evolution (that is, is prejudice unique to humans?), and (3) neural mechanisms (that is, what neural signatures are associated with prejudice?).In relation to development, I found that 6-month olds show evidence for prejudice. This is earlier than prior proposals that prejudice emerges at age 3-4 years. As for the evolution of prejudice, data collection is ongoing. Early results suggest that chimpanzees and humans may show similar evidence for prejudice. Regarding the neural mechanisms, we are now testing children and adults. More data is required for any definitive conclusion.When completed, these studies will shed light on how and why prejudice occurs.
