유아의 분류과제 수행에서 나타난 표상융통성과 반응통제성의 발달적 변화 = Developmental Changes in the Representational Flexibility and Response Control in Preschoolers' Performance Sorting Tasks

국문 초록 (Abstract)

이 연구는 5세 유아 15명을 대상으로 카드분류과제를 사용하여 규칙발견에서의 표상융통성과 반응통제성의 발달적 변화를 미시발생적 연구방법을 통하여 조사하였다. 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 5세 유아의 표상융통성 발달은 부분적으로 불규칙적이지만 뚜렷한 단계적 발달의 변화과정을 보여주었다. 유아의 1단계 표상은 단순(원형)표상을, 2단계 표상은 단순표상의 변형 표상을, 3단계 표상은 이들 표상들을 조합한 조합표상을, 4단계 표상은 상징적 형태에 대한 추상표상을 보였다. 둘째, 5세 유아의 반응통제성 발달은 수행 횟수가 증가하여도 유아의 반응통제성은 유의미하게 발달하는 경향을 보여주지 않았다.

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study offers a detailed understanding of the developmental changes in preschoolers' representational flexibility and response control in performing card-sorting tasks. A microgenetic design and the WCST64 were used to examine fifteen 5-year-olds' developmental changes in representational flexibility and response control as shown through their rule discovery. This study demonstrates the following several results about preschoolers' developmental changes of representational flexibility and response control. First, 5-year-old preschooler's representation of rule discovery in card-sorting develops through specific changes in a step-by-step pattern. Their development of representational flexibility goes through a systematic developmental sequence of simple representation, a modified representation of a modified representation, a combined representation of these representations, and an abstract representation.. Second, in this study, the preschoolers demonstrated no significant change in their development of response controls when they repeated the number of tasks.
