小孩子呱呱坠地的时候,只是一个生物意义上的“人”,等到他长大成人,就成了一个社会意义的人。这就是人的“社会化”。随着儿童年龄的增长,他身上就不断形成一些特性,心理学把这种社会特性的形成和发展叫做“社会性发展”。通过社会行为的学习,儿童会掌握约定俗成的举止方式、道德观念,从而能够适应自己所生存的社会,学会怎样生活、怎样做事、怎样去爱别人、怎样接受别人的爱。 When a child is born, it is merely a “human being” in the biological sense. When he grows up, he becomes a socially meaningful person. This is the human “socialization.” As children grow older, some features continue to form on him, and psychology calls this social formation and development “social development.” Through the study of social behavior, children will grasp the conventions and modes of conduct and moral values, so as to be able to adapt to the society in which they live, to learn how to live and how to do things, how to love others, and how to accept the love of others.
