本研究随机选取某幼儿园96名3~5岁幼儿,运用情境实验法考察其对情绪表达规则的理解与运用。研究结果表明,幼儿在3岁时已具有一定的区分内外情绪差异的能力,4岁左右这种能力开始迅速发展,且在积极和消极情境下发展趋势较一致,幼儿性别与情境类型的交互作用显著。在策略运用上,平静化策略出现频率最高,掩饰策略次之,夸大和弱化策略的运用相对较少.
Picking 96 3-5-year children of a certain kindergarten, the researchers use situational experiment to examine their understanding and use of emotional display rules. The results show that children already possess the cognitive ability to differentiate inner and outer emotion at 3, and this ability develops rapidly at around 4. The developing trend of this ability is consistent under positive and negative context. The interactivity between gender and context type is significant. In terms of strategy use, neutralization occurs most frequently and second to it is masking; intensifying and deintensifying are used less frequently.
