Young children across the globe enjoy playing games of hide and seek.For them,
there's something highly exciting about 1 someone else's glance and making
oneself unable to be seen.
However, we all witness that preschool children are remarkably 2 at hiding.They
often cover only their eyes with their hands, leaving the rest of their bodies 3 .
For a long time, this ineffective hiding method was 4 as evidence that children
are hopelessly “egocentric(自我中心的)” creatures.But our 5 research
results in child developmental psychology contradicted that idea.
We brought young children aged 2- 4 into our Minds in Development Lab at
USC.Each 6 sat down with an adult who covered her own eyes or ears.We then
asked the child if she could 7 or hear the adult.Surprisingly, children replied that
they couldn't.The same 8 happened when the adult covered her own mouth:
Now children said that they couldn't 9 to her.
A number of 10 ruled out that the children misunderstood what they were being
asked.The results were clear: Our young subjects 11 the questions and knew
exactly what was asked of them.Their 12 to the questions reflected their true
belief that “I can see you only if you can see me, too.” They simply 13
mutual(相互的) recognition and regard.Our 14 suggest when a child “hides”
by putting a blanket over her head, it is not a result of egocentrism.In fact, children
consider this method 15 when others use it.
