The present study investigates the way infants express their emotions in relation to parental feelings between maternal and paternal questions and direct requests. We therefore compared interpersonal engagement accompanying parental questions and direct requests between infant-mother and infant-father interactions. We video-recorded spontaneous communication between 11 infant-mother and 11 infant-father dyads-from the 2nd to the 6th month-in their home. The main results of this study are summarized as follows: (a) there are in the way preverbal infants use their affections in spontaneous interactions with their mothers and fathers to express signs of sensitivity in sharing knowledge through questions and direct requests; and (b) the developmental trajectories of face-to-face emotional coordination in the course of parental questions descend in a similar way for both parents across the age range of this study. Regarding the developmental trajectories of emotional non-coordination, there is evidence of a linear trend in terms of age difference between the parents' gender with fathers showing the steeper slope. The results are discussed in relation to the theory of intersubjectivity.
本研究调查了婴儿在与父母情感相关方面，在母亲和父亲的提问及直接请求之间表达情感的方式。因此，我们比较了婴儿与母亲及婴儿与父亲互动中，伴随父母提问和直接请求的人际参与情况。我们对11对母婴和11对父子（从第2个月到第6个月）在家中的自然交流进行了录像。本研究的主要结果总结如下：（a）前语言期婴儿在与父母的自然互动中运用情感，通过提问和直接请求来表达分享知识时的敏感迹象，存在一定方式；（b）在本研究的年龄范围内，父母提问过程中面对面情感协调的发展轨迹，父母双方的下降方式相似。关于情感不协调的发展轨迹，有证据表明，父母性别之间的年龄差异呈线性趋势，父亲的斜率更陡。研究结果结合主体间性理论进行了讨论。
