An Analysis of Types of Language in Children's Dyadic Collaboration

This study investigated types of language during dyadic collaboration on 2 spatial perspective problems. Subjects were 3 groups of children consisting of 14 dyads each of boys and of girls paired by age and sex, totaling 168 6-, 8-, and 10-year-old children. The entire procedure was videotaped. Data were processed by t-test and one-way ANOVA. Older children used less ego-centric and more socialized speech than younger children. No age differences were found for degree of exploration without collaboration, quarreling, or nonabstract collaborative explanation. The 10-year-olds used more abstract collaborative explanation, primitive argument, and genuine argument than the 6-year-olds.
