亲子论辩是亲子互动的表现形式之一,良好的亲子论辩往往会对亲子关系的和谐发展和儿童心智的健康成长产生重要影响。从语用论辩理论与论证图式相结合的角度来分析亲子论辩,是一项值得尝试的工作。亲子论辩涉及论辩的方法、策略、技巧和准则等多方面的复杂因素,就父母而言,应致力于提高自身和孩子的说理能力;对研究者来说,可以考虑针对不同年龄段儿童的认知能力,开发相应的语言与思维训练课程。亲子论辩研究应多角度、多层次地关注儿童说理能力的培养和家长论辩水平的提升,播撒更多理性思维的种子。
The argumentation between parents and children is an important form of parent-child interaction. Arguments in parent-child discussions play an important role in the parent-child relationship and the healthy growth of the mind. As a verbal, social, and rational activity, argumentation aims at convincing a reasonable critic of the acceptability of a standpoint by putting forward a constellation of one or more propositions to justify this standpoint. In the 1970s, Frans van Eemeren and Rob Grootendorst put forward the "Pragma-dialectics Theory" based on the classic argumentation theory, logic, pragmatics, discourse analysis and other disciplines. Although the Pragma-dialectics Theory distinguishes between argument and standpoint as well as three major demonstration schemes: the sign, the analogy and the cause, it is still too general in concrete analysis. We argue that in the analysis of realistic argumentative discourses, Wafton's argumentation scheme analysis has made up for the lack of pragmatic argument theory in his work on the proof of scheme details. Therefore, it is worthwhile to adopt the theoretical framework of pragmatic argumentation and take into consideration the resolution process of Walton's analysis of parent-child argumentation disagreements by using argumentation schemes to discuss the inherent characteristics of different argumentation schemes in the hope of providing constructive inspirations for creating a healthy parent-child argumentation atmosphere and improving children's reasoning capabilities. In this paper, "take the baby seat," a case of argumentation, is taken as an example and is reconstructed from the perspective of pragma-dialectics. We found that the mother used result argument scheme, choice argument scheme and authoritative argument scheme in resolving opinion disagreements. In the meantime, the mother also used multiple argumentation, coordinative argumentation and subordinate argumentation to provide solid proof for their children to "take the baby seat or
