盲童的亲属词概念结构——兼与汉族明眼儿童及聋人亲属词概念结构比较

The Conceptual Structure of Kinship Words of Visually-Impaired Children——A Comparison with the Conceptual Structure of Kinship Words of Visually-Normal and Hearing-Impaired Chinese Children

使用自由分类法探讨盲童亲属词概念结构,并与明眼儿童、聋人比较。结果表明:(1)小学盲童亲属词概念结构有两个维度:性别和辈分;(2)中学盲童亲属词概念结构也有两个维度:性别和核心家庭成员/非核心家庭成员;(3)与汉族明眼儿童和聋人相比,盲童对亲属词分类尤其重视亲属性别。

This study, based on natural classification, aims to probe into the conceptual structure of kinship words of visually-impaired children by comparing these children with a certain number of visually-normal children and hearing-impaired children. The results show the following： （1） The conceptual structure of kinship words of the visually-impaired primary school students fell into two dimensions： gender and generation; （2） the conceptual structure of kinship words of the visually-impaired secondary school students fell into two dimensions： gender, and whether or not core family members; and （3） compared with the visually-normal and the hearing-impaired children, the visually-impaired children attached special importance to gender in the classification of kinship words.
