社交线索下幼儿社会分类的发展机制

The Development Mechanism of Preschool Social Categorization under Social Clues

本研究以4-6岁幼儿为研究对象,探讨幼儿在社交线索条件下进行社会分类的年龄特征、对社交行为的解释,以及当社交线索与物理线索发生冲突时,幼儿对社会分类线索的选择偏好。结果发现:随着年龄增长,幼儿依据社交线索进行分类的能力不断提高;社交线索的行为性质会对幼儿分类产生影响,与不友好行为相比,幼儿更容易依据友好行为划分群体类别;在行为解释方面,4岁幼儿更多地将行为原因解释为个人意愿和社会关系,而5、6岁幼儿倾向于将行为解释为社会分类所致;当社交线索与物理线索发生冲突时,5、6岁幼儿倾向于优先根据社交线索进行分类,而4岁幼儿没有这种倾向,他们对线索的选择呈现随机性。

This study examines the age characteristics of social categorization under social clues in children aged 4-6 years old.The research explores their explanations for social behavior and their preference for social categorization clues when they conflict with physical clues.The findings suggest that as children grow older,their ability to categorize based on social clues improves.The study also highlights that the behavior nature of social clues can have an impact on the categorization of young children,and they are more likely to categorize groups based on friendly behavior compared to unfriendly behavior.Furthermore,the study shows that 4-year-old children tend to interpret behavior as personal will and social relationships,while 5-year-old and 6-year-old children tend to interpret behavior as social categorization with clear intentions.Additionally,when there is a conflict between social clues and physical clues,5-year-old and 6-year-old children tend to prioritize categorization based on social clues,while 4-year-old children do not have this tendency,and their selection of clues is random.
