Abstract

This study compared abilities of 4- and 5-yr.-olds to be accurate in connoting "who is older" without using size representation as a cue. An age discrimination task was administered to 30 4-yr.-olds and 30 5-yr.-olds. Analysis indicated that the 5-yr.-old children had better ability to discriminate age than the 4-yr.-old children but were not equal to adults. No significant sex differences were found in the children's ability to discriminate age.

摘要

本研究比较了4岁和5岁儿童在不使用身高作为线索的情况下准确表达“谁年龄更大”的能力。对30名4岁儿童和30名5岁儿童进行了年龄辨别任务。分析表明，5岁儿童比4岁儿童具有更好的年龄辨别能力，但不及成年人。在儿童的年龄辨别能力上未发现显著的性别差异。
