| Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to examine the ability of inferring emotion in childhood. The subjects who were 25 first-graders, 17 third-graders, 16 sixth-graders in primary school were presented a sh...ort story and information on protagonist's trait (individual likings), relationship between protagonist's and his or her friends, and situation. Then they were asked to infer protagonist's facial expression to his or her friends then to infer protagonist's emotions. The results of experiments showed significant difference between first-graders and sixth graders. Sixth-graders tended to infer protagonist's emotions using more than one information, especially relationship, while first-graders tended to use only one information. Developmental change was indicated from the results of experiments.show more
