2岁幼儿的社会朝向反应——本质及功能

本研究以66对17至32个月的幼儿和母亲为研究对象，研究了在实验室情境中，幼儿在不同实验情境下对母亲的社会朝向反应，并探讨了幼儿社会朝向行为的功能以及母亲的行为对幼儿社会朝向反应的影响。结果显示，（1）大多数幼儿在实验中都表现出了至少一次的社会朝向反应，社会朝向反应的发生是酱遍的；（2）在不同情境中，幼儿的社会朝向反应不同，在积极的情境中，社会朝向反应有分享情绪经历的功能；在抗拒诱惑的任务中，社会朝向行为与获得支持有关；（3）母亲对情境的非信息性反应对幼儿的社会朝向行为有影响，社会朝向是幼儿对社会情境的适应性行为，对这种非语言的情感交流行为的研究可以帮助我们探究幼儿情绪社会化的过程。

Social Looking in 2-year-old Children: The Nature of Social Looking and It's Function

This study examined social looking,defined as child-initiated looking towards a mother's face,in a sample of two-years-old children and their mothers.80% of the children looked to their mothers at least once in the course of an emotion-eliciting situation.Social looking occurred more often in the positive situation.And in an unclear situation,a mom's behavior would affect children's social looking;and in the situation in which self-control was needed,children who performed more social looking did better than those who performed less.
