摘要

世界上大多数人都说多种语言,然而儿童基于语言的偏好在西方单语环境中得到了很大程度的研究。目前的研究调查了生活在印度海德拉巴的4至8岁儿童的语言偏好,海德拉巴是一个多语言地区,语言包括泰卢固语(该邦的官方语言,也是该邦许多儿童的母语)和英语(一些学校的教学语言)。我们向儿童展示了一些新奇的东西,并探讨了他们对不同说话者(泰卢固语、英国口音英语或印度口音英语)学习的选择性偏好。此外,本研究通过操纵学习目标(即表现目标vs.享受目标)和学习内容(即科学、技术、工程和数学[STEM]对象vs.文化对象)来评估儿童偏好的灵活性。孩子们更喜欢说英语的人,而不是说泰卢固语的人,这种趋势随着年龄的增长而增加。这种偏好在绩效学习目标和STEM学习内容上尤为明显。此外,母语为泰卢固语的儿童对英语的偏见不那么明显。本研究结果为多语言环境中基于语言的偏见的发展提供了新的见解。首先,他们强调了说话者熟悉度和说话者地位的双重交叉考虑,以指导儿童选择向谁学习。其次,研究结果表明,儿童在教学环境下的语言偏好是灵活的,因为儿童在策略上整合了社会线索(如基于语言的态度)和语境线索(如学习目标)。(PsycInfo数据库记录(c) 2023 APA,版权所有)。

Children's language-based pedagogical preferences in a multilingual society.

A majority of the world's population is multilingual, yet children's language-based preferences have largely been studied in Western monolingual contexts. The present research investigated language-based preferences in 4- to 8-year-old children living in Hyderabad, India, a multilingual region with languages such as Telugu (official language of the state, and the native language of many children in the state) and English (medium of instruction in some schools). We presented to children novel objects and probed their selective preference to learn from different speakers (Telugu, British-accented English, or Indian-accented English). In addition, the current study assessed the flexibility of children's preferences by manipulating the learning goal (i.e., performance goal vs. enjoyment goal) and learning content (i.e., Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics [STEM] objects vs. cultural objects). Children showed a preference for both English speakers over Telugu speakers, a tendency that increased with age. This preference was especially pronounced for performance learning goals and for STEM learning content. Furthermore, children whose native language was Telugu showed a less pronounced English bias. The results of this study provide new insights into the development of language-based biases in multilingual environments. First, they highlight dual and intersecting considerations of speaker familiarity and speaker status in guiding children's choices about from whom to learn. Second, the results suggest that children's language-based preferences in a pedagogical setting are flexible, as children integrate social cues (e.g., language-based attitudes) as well as contextual cues (e.g., the learning goal) strategically.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Experimental Psychology: General publishes articles describing empirical work that bridges the traditional interests of two or more communities of psychology. The work may touch on issues dealt with in JEP: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, JEP: Human Perception and Performance, JEP: Animal Behavior Processes, or JEP: Applied, but may also concern issues in other subdisciplines of psychology, including social processes, developmental processes, psychopathology, neuroscience, or computational modeling. Articles in JEP: General may be longer than the usual journal publication if necessary, but shorter articles that bridge subdisciplines will also be considered.
