ABSTRACT Question asking plays a fundamental role in learning, and the cognitive development literature contains many studies of specific types of question-asking skills. However, little is known about the developmental course across different aspects of question asking, of which we explore: (a) the ability to ask questions that enable children to solve a specific problem, (b) the ability to ask questions that will increase general understanding about a topic, (c) the ability to recognize the relevance of information yielded by another person’s answer to a question, and (d) children’s general levels of curiosity. The current study includes four tasks assessing preschool through first-grade children’s curiosity and performance on the three different types of question-asking tasks listed above. We observed significant development between kindergarten and first grade in children’s question-asking and significant correlations among the different question-asking tasks. Children who generated more questions for problem solving were better at recognizing effective questions, and generating questions for learning was related to generating problem-solving questions. Both the ability to recognize effective questions and to generate questions for learning were positively correlated with our measure of children’s curiosity. The results and implications are discussed for understanding the development of question-asking skills and the role of curiosity as a fundamental motivator of children’s question asking.

问题——和一些答案——关于幼儿的问题

摘要 提问在学习中扮演着重要的角色,认知发展文献包含许多关于特定类型提问技巧的研究。然而,我们对提问不同方面的发展过程知之甚少,我们探讨了:(a) 提出问题的能力,使儿童能够解决特定问题,(b) 提出问题的能力,这将提高一般性对主题的理解,(c) 识别他人对问题的回答所产生的信息的相关性的能力,以及 (d) 儿童的一般好奇心。目前的研究包括四项任务,通过一年级儿童的好奇心和上述三种不同类型的提问任务的表现来评估学前班。我们观察到幼儿园和一年级之间儿童提问的显着发展以及不同提问任务之间的显着相关性。产生更多解决问题的问题的孩子更善于识别有效问题,产生学习问题与产生解决问题的问题有关。识别有效问题和提出学习问题的能力与我们衡量儿童好奇心的能力呈正相关。讨论了结果和影响,以了解提问技巧的发展以及好奇心作为儿童提问的基本动力的作用。产生更多解决问题的问题的孩子更善于识别有效问题,产生学习问题与产生解决问题的问题有关。识别有效问题和提出学习问题的能力与我们衡量儿童好奇心的能力呈正相关。讨论了结果和影响,以了解提问技巧的发展以及好奇心作为儿童提问的基本动力的作用。产生更多解决问题的问题的孩子更善于识别有效问题,产生学习问题与产生解决问题的问题有关。识别有效问题和提出学习问题的能力与我们衡量儿童好奇心的能力呈正相关。讨论了结果和影响,以了解提问技巧的发展以及好奇心作为儿童提问的基本动力的作用。识别有效问题和提出学习问题的能力与我们衡量儿童好奇心的能力呈正相关。讨论了结果和影响,以了解提问技巧的发展以及好奇心作为儿童提问的基本动力的作用。识别有效问题和提出学习问题的能力与我们衡量儿童好奇心的能力呈正相关。讨论了结果和影响,以了解提问技巧的发展以及好奇心作为儿童提问的基本动力的作用。
