We investigated the role of inhibitory control in young children's human figure drawing. We used the Bear-Dragon task as a measure of inhibitory control and used the classification system devised by Cox and Parkin to measure the development of human figure drawing. We tested 50 children aged between 40 and 64 months. Regression analysis showed that inhibitory control predicted development in human figure drawing even after the effect of age was excluded. These data suggest that inhibitory control plays a role in the development of children's drawing and imply a relation between the executive functions and representational change.
我们研究了抑制控制在幼儿人物画中的作用。我们使用熊-龙任务作为抑制控制的测量手段，使用考克斯和帕金设计的分类系统来测量人物画的发展。我们测试了 50 名年龄在 40 到 64 个月之间的儿童。回归分析表明，即使在排除年龄影响后，抑制控制仍能预测人物画的发展。这些数据表明，抑制控制在儿童绘画发展中起着作用，并暗示了执行功能和表象变化之间的关系。
