Ownership is a cornerstone of many human societies and can be understood as a cooperative arrangement, where individuals refrain from taking each other's property. Owners can thus trust others to respect their property even in their absence. We investigated this principle in 5- to 7-year-olds (N = 152) from 4 diverse societies. Children participated in a resource task with a peer-partner, where we established ownership by assigning children to one side or the other of an apparatus and by marking resources with colors to help children keep track of them. When retrieving resources in the partner's presence, the majority of children took their own things and respected what belonged to their partner. A proportion of children in all societies also respected ownership in their partner's absence, although the strength of respect varied considerably across societies. We discuss implications for the development of ownership concepts and possible explanations for societal differences. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved).
所有权是许多人类社会的基石，可以理解为一种合作安排，即个人避免占有彼此的财产。因此，所有者可以相信即使在他们不在场的情况下，其他人也会尊重他们的财产。我们在来自 4 个不同社会的 5 至 7 岁儿童（N = 152）中研究了这一原则。在与同伴的资源任务中，我们通过将儿童分配到仪器的一侧或另一侧，并使用颜色标记资源来帮助儿童跟踪资源，从而确定所有权。当在伙伴在场的情况下取回资源时，大多数儿童拿走了自己的东西，并尊重属于伙伴的东西。在所有社会中，都有一部分儿童在其伙伴不在场的情况下也尊重所有权，尽管尊重程度在不同社会之间存在很大差异。我们讨论了所有权概念发展的意义以及可能导致社会差异的解释。（PsycINFO 数据库记录（c）2019 APA，保留所有权利）。
