广西农村壮族儿童的入学准备状况

On School Readiness of Rural Zhuang Minority Children in Guangxi

本研究对广西农村壮族儿童的入学准备状况进行了一年的跟踪调查,即在5岁和6岁时分别对儿童的入学准备状况进行了考察。第一次500名(年龄M=65个月,SD=3.63),第二次409名(年龄M=77个月,SD=3.63)儿童参加了研究。研究工具在美国研究院设计的儿童入学准备测验的基础上改编而成。结果表明,尽管壮族农村儿童的入学准备得分在入小学前的一年中有了明显的进步,但壮族农村儿童的入学准备明显不足,尤其在早期读写、数学技能以及颜色认知方面与城乡汉族儿童的差距很大。壮族农村6岁儿童在入学准备得分上不存在性别差异,但是来自不同乡镇的儿童得分有显著差异。

This is an one-year longitudinal study which examined children＇s school readiness at 2 time points, when children were 5 years old and 6 years old. there was a great gap in the school readiness between rural Zhuang minority children and their counterparts in urban area, particularly with much lower scores in early literacy, mathematics and color recognition. There was no gender difference but a significant difference between children who were from different townships.
