母亲评价与幼儿数学认知发展的关系

Maternal Assessment and its Relationship with Children’s Mathematical Development

母亲对幼儿数学能力的评价是母亲教育观念的重要组成部分。研究运用问卷法与个别测查法，考察母亲对子女数学能力的评价与幼儿数学认知能力，并通过两者的一致程度揭示母亲评价其子女数学能力的准确性。研究发现，母亲对子女数学能力的评价存在明显的高估倾向；与母亲受教育水平及子女性别等因素不同，子女前期的数学成绩对母亲评价其数学能力的准确性存在显著影响；母亲对子女数学能力评价的准确性与子女数学认知发展水平存在显著的正相关，适当的高估对子女未来数学认知的发展最为有利。

Parental assessment of children’s mathematical ability plays an important role， either directly or indirectly， in a children’s mathematical development. In China， mothers look after children much more than fathers do. The present study explored (1) the characteristics of Chinese mother’s assessment of their children’s mathematical development， (2) the factors that influence the accuracy of Chinese mother’s assessment， and (3) the relationship between maternal assessment and children’s mathematic
