This study examines the effects of a "transitional object" (surgical cloth) on the thumb sucking of a 3-year-old boy in two conditions: while sitting in the lap of his physical therapist and while alone in his crib. Sucking occurred when the cloth was present and did not occur when it was absent, regardless of condition. These results are discussed in terms of establishing operations, object attachment, and application.
本研究考察了“过渡性客体”(手术巾)在两种情境下对一名3岁男孩吮拇指行为的影响:一是坐在物理治疗师腿上时,二是独自在婴儿床里时。无论在哪种情境下,当手术巾出现时会发生吮吸行为,而当手术巾不出现时则不会发生吮吸行为。本文从建立操作、客体依恋和应用方面对这些结果进行了讨论。
