小学儿童分析概括和辨认汉字字形能力的发展研究——Ⅱ.分析概括字形能力的发展及其与辨认发展的关系

DEVELOPMENTAL STUDIES ON THE RECOGNITION AND GENERALIZATION OF CHINESE CHARACTERS IN PRIMARY SCHOOL CHILDREN——Ⅱ. DEVELOPMENT OF GENERALIZATION AND IT'S RELATION TO RECOGNITION

这个报告要报导的是小学儿童分析概括汉字字形能力的发展情况。实驗是用前一报告的同一些被試进行的。从前一报告我們看到了儿童辨认字形能力的发展的两个比較大的轉折。因此,进一步的問題是:在分析概括汉字字形能力方面的发展情况如何?

Hull’s and Smoke’s methods for the study of concept formation were adopted which, included 4 tests: recognition, generalization, identification and reproduction. The subjects in this experiment were the same as those in the previous experiment on recognition. It was found that there are also 3 types of developmental curves: 1) recognition and generalization negatively accelerated ; 2) identification positively accelerated ; 3) concepts of figures——simple accelerated curve. Correlations between different indices on generalization and recognition of different Chinese characters were significant. The results support the hypothesis that the ability of generalization is one of the basic factors which promote the recognition of Chinese characters.
