摘要
本研究通过观察亲子互动游戏来考查母亲———孩子间心理状态术语、非心理状态术语使用与儿童心理理论发展的关系。实验结果表明,控制了年龄因素后,儿童心理理论发展和母亲心理状态术语使用存在显著相关,提示母亲有效地谈论心理状态对儿童心理理论的发展具有影响;儿童心理理论发展与其心理状态术语使用也存在显著相关,提示儿童将心理理论任务中涉及的表征问题与信念词所隐含的表征属性相联系是形成心理理论、正确使用心理状态术语的前提。当控制了母亲和儿童的心理状态术语使用总数后,母亲及孩子非心理状态术语的使用与儿童心理理论发展都不再存在显著相关,提示非心理状态术语的使用是以心理状态术语使用为中介而对儿童的心理理论发展产生影响。
This study explored the relationship between ToM and the mother-child＇s use of mental state terms and non-mental state temps through an observation of mother-child play. After the control of age, children＇s ToM is significantly related to the use of their mothers＇ mental state terms, which means that the more frequently and effectively the mother talks about mental states, the greater the benefit to the development of children＇ s ToM. Children＇ s ToM is significantly related to the use of their own mental state terms, which means that to combine the representational situation with the representational property of mental state terms is essential to the deve＇,opment of both ToM and mental state terms. After the control over the sum of mental state terms, children＇s TOM is not significantly related to the non-mental state terms. It is possible that non mental state terms affect the development of children＇s TOM indirectly, for example, through mental state terms.
