The goal of this study was to examine whether attachment security and child temperament predicted differences in the elaboration and emotional content of mother-child discourse in 2 contexts and whether those differences were related to a child's socioemotional development. Fifty-one preschool children and their mothers were videotaped reading a storybook and discussing the child's previous behavior. These conversations were coded for maternal elaboration and emotional content. Mothers also completed reports of child temperament, attachment security, and social behavior. Children completed measures of emotional understanding, behavioral internalization, and representations of relationships. The findings suggested that both aspects of mother-child discourse were related to attachment, temperament, and socioemotional competence, although the findings varied depending on the context of the discourse.
本研究的目的是考察依恋安全性和儿童气质是否能预测在两种情境下母子对话的详尽程度和情感内容差异，以及这些差异是否与儿童的社会情感发展相关。对51名学龄前儿童及其母亲阅读一本故事书并讨论孩子先前行为的过程进行了录像。这些对话被编码以分析母亲的详尽程度和情感内容。母亲们还完成了关于儿童气质、依恋安全性和社会行为的报告。儿童完成了情感理解、行为内化和关系表征的测量。研究结果表明，母子对话的两个方面都与依恋、气质和社会情感能力相关，尽管结果因对话情境而异。
