希格勒的策略研究新进展

The Newly-Development of Siegler’s Strategy Research

希格勒是国外系统地研究儿童策略运用的认知心理学家。在近年的研究中 ,他一改以往生疏任务下的研究范式 ,采用儿童熟悉任务 ,发现儿童在多种认知任务中都拥有多种策略 ,且在策略的选择运用中表现出良好的适应性。希格勒将儿童的策略分为检索策略和支持策略两大类 ,提出“联结分布模式”来解释儿童在检索策略和支持策略之间的选择机制。此后 ,又提出“策略选择及发现模式” 。

Rorbert S. Siegler is a cognitive psyc hologist who has studied on children’s strategy-use . In the newly-years’res earches, he changed unfamiliar tasks into familiar tasks to study children, find ing that children have various strategies in many cognitive tasks. And children can select strategy adaptively. Siegler divided children’s strategies into two kinds, which are retrieval strategies and backup strategies. He advanced the dis tribution of associations model to explain the mechanism of selection between re trieval and backup strategies. After this, he developed a model of children’s s trategy choices and discovery, which reflected children’s choices among various backup strategies and their strategies’finding clearly.
