摘要

大量的研究和理论都致力于儿童心理理论(ToM)的发展取决于他们的社会环境的质量(例如,父母的心理状态语言使用,兄弟姐妹的存在)。我们强调将儿童视为这些社会环境中积极的观察者和参与者的重要性,因此是他们自己的ToM发展的代理人。根据强调儿童在ToM发展中的积极作用的研究和理论,我们确定了儿童层面的社会因素,这些因素可能是解释这种发展中的个体差异的关键。具体来说,我们关注的是儿童“社会倾向”的可变性——他们如何关注社会环境,以及他们如何在这些环境中互动和塑造这些环境。这些倾向可能会影响儿童从社会环境中获得的社会信息——他们用来构建ToM的信息。我们回顾并整合了越来越多的研究,这些研究已经建立了儿童ToM的个体差异与他们的社会倾向之间的经验联系,特别是他们的社会注意力、害羞、焦虑退缩和攻击性等因素。综上所述,这些发现为关于社会环境和儿童在这些环境中的参与是否以及如何影响儿童的认知能力,特别是儿童如何构建他们的认知能力的持续辩论提供了信息。最后,我们提出了对这些主题继续研究的建议。

How children’s social tendencies can shape their theory of mind development: Access and attention to social information

A wealth of research and theorizing has been dedicated to the idea that children’s theory of mind (ToM) development is contingent upon qualities of their social contexts (e.g., parents’ mental-state language use, the presence of siblings). We highlight the importance of considering the child as an active observer and participant in these social contexts, and thus an agent in their own ToM development. Drawing on research and theory that emphasizes the child’s active role in ToM development, we identify child-level social factors that may be critical in explaining individual differences in this development. Specifically, we focus on variability in children’s ‘social tendencies’—how they attend to social contexts, and how they interact within and shape those contexts. These tendencies may influence the social information that children garner from social contexts—information that they use to construct a ToM. We review and integrate a growing body of research that has established empirical links between individual differences in children’s ToM and their social tendencies—specifically, factors such as their social attentiveness, shyness, anxious-withdrawal, and aggressiveness. Taken together, these findings inform continued debates on whether and how social contexts and children’s participation in those contexts influence children’s ToM, particularly with regard to how children construct their ToM. We conclude with suggestions for continued research on these topics.
