近红外成像技术在幼儿心理研究中的应用

On the Application of the Functional Near-infrared Spectroscopy in Child Development

近红外成像技术是近年来兴起的一种脑成像研究技术，已被广泛应用于幼儿心理研究中，具有安全性高、性能佳、噪音小、价格低廉、空间和时间精度相对较高等优势。本文主要介绍近红外成像技术的原理、基本分析方法及其在幼儿语言学习、婴幼儿社会认知、幼儿游戏、课堂教学活动等方面的应用。并指出应用近红外成像技术开展幼儿心理研究时需注意的几个问题。

The functional near-infrared spectroscopy （fi＇qlRS） is a brand new Neuromaging technique. It is widely used in child development since it is safe, emcient, low noise, low cost and has relatively high spatial and temporal resolution. This paper introduces the principles of fNIRS, the methods and its application in the research in child language learning, social cognition, games and play and classroom teaching. Furthermore, the paper points out the pros and cons of the fNIRS application.
