研究表明,学龄前儿童会监测他人先前的准确性,并更愿意向成绩最好的人学习。我们调查了学龄前儿童归因的范围,基于个体先前的准确性。实验一显示,5岁的孩子(但不是4岁的孩子)使用一个人先前在标签上的准确性来预测她对单词和更广泛的事实的知识;他们还显示出一种光环效应,预测她会更亲社会。实验2证实,总体来说,4岁儿童没有对知识进行明确的概括。这些发现表明,一个人先前的准确性影响了年龄较大的学龄前儿童对该人更广泛知识的期望,以及他们对她在社交中将如何表现的印象。
Research has shown that preschoolers monitor others' prior accuracy and prefer to learn from individuals who have the best track record. We investigated the scope of preschoolers' attributions based on an individual's prior accuracy. Experiment 1 revealed that 5-year-olds (but not 4-year-olds) used an individual's prior accuracy at labelling to predict her knowledge of words and broader facts; they also showed a 'halo effect' predicting she would be more prosocial. Experiment 2 confirmed that, overall, 4-year-olds did not make explicit generalizations of knowledge. These findings suggest that an individual's prior accuracy influences older preschoolers' expectations of that individual's broader knowledge as well as their impressions of how she will behave in social interactions.
