Abstract

ABSTRACT The aim of the present article is to discuss what children regard as important in life and how they view the purpose of life. We proceed from a new materiality perspective. The results are based on a study conducted in Sweden among 40 6- to 9-year-old children in two different classes in two elementary schools. A qualitative data-collection method was used involving text reading and movie viewing. In the present article, we begin with a theoretical discussion of the new materiality perspective before presenting our results. The findings show that children perceive togetherness, kindness, fairness and freedom as basic values for their own part and that they consider wealth and family to be basic societal values. There is a value differentiation going on in children’s thinking, a result of which is that some values step out as basic values for children. A map of values is construed that aims to explicate children’s value orientation.

去哪里，为什么?孩子们从新的物质性角度看待意义和价值

本文的目的是讨论孩子们认为生活中重要的是什么，以及他们如何看待生活的目的。我们从新的物质性角度出发。这一结果是基于在瑞典对两所小学两个不同班级的40名6至9岁儿童进行的一项研究。采用定性数据收集方法，包括文本阅读和电影观看。在本文中，我们首先从理论上讨论新的重要性视角，然后再提出我们的结果。调查结果显示，孩子们认为团结、善良、公平和自由是他们自己的基本价值观，他们认为财富和家庭是基本的社会价值观。在儿童的思维中存在着一种价值分化，其结果是一些价值观成为儿童的基本价值观。解释了一幅价值观地图，旨在阐明儿童的价值取向。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
