The purpose of this study was to examine the relations between children's social competence and initial index of theory of mind at 30 months of age.
The participants of the study were 322 toddlers and parents/caregivers who were registered with the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST) project. They completed a five-minute interaction session, which was coded using the Interaction Rating Scale (IRS) as an evidence-based practical index of children's social competence. In addition, the children were asked to complete a diverse-desire task as a ToM (theory of mind) index.
The results showed that the ToM index was related to the total score and subscales of the IRS, such as Empathy and Emotional regulation.
These findings show that the IRS score was related to ToM task performance at 30 months of age.
本研究旨在探讨 30 个月儿童社会能力与初期心理理论指数之间的关系。
本研究的参与者为 322 名幼儿及其父母/照顾者,他们是日本科学技术振兴机构(JST)项目的注册者。他们完成了五分钟的互动环节,该环节使用互动评分量表(IRS)进行了编码,作为儿童社会能力的循证实践指标。此外,还要求孩子们完成一项多样化愿望任务,作为心理理论(ToM)指标。
结果表明,ToM 指数与 IRS 的总分和子量表(如同理心和情绪调节)有关。
这些发现表明,30 个月时 IRS 分数与 ToM 任务表现有关。
