儿童移情指向性的发展及不同语言提示的作用

采用图片故事和情境实验,对3到9岁儿童移情指向性的发展及不同语言提示对助人行为的作用进行了探讨。研究表明,3～5岁幼儿自我指向的个人悲伤体验占优势,5岁以后他人指向的移情担心开始超过个人悲伤而占优势;他人关注组的助人行为优于自我关注组和控制组,自我关注组和控制组前后测成绩差异不显著,他人关注组后测成绩优于前测成绩。

Development in Direction of Children's Empathy Experiencing and Influence of Different Language Prompts

This study discussed the development in direction of children's empathy experiencing and the influence of different language prompts on help-giving behaviors for children aged 3 to 9 years of age through picture stories and situational experiments. The study shows that personal distress of egoistic direction gains an advantage for 3-5 years old children, and empathy concern of altruistic direction occupies a dominant position since 5 years of age. Help-giving behaviors of altruistic direction gain the upper hand over that of egoistic direction and controlling which have no distinction in scores between the former and latter examinations, while scores of the latter examination in altruistic direction is superior to that of the former one.
