| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In pretend play, people sometimes intentionally distort reality. Therefore, it is considered that children do not acquire new knowledge through pretense, which often causes misconceptions. However, recent studies (e.g., Hopkins, Dore, & Lillard, 2015; Sutherland & Friedman, 2012, 2013) showed that children can learn new information in pretend play with adults. The present study showed that children can learn the perceptual characteristics of novel foods or tools through pretense.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
従来，ふり遊びは，幼児が既に知っていることや体験したことを再現する場であり，幼児がふり遊びの中で新しい知識を獲得することはない，と考えられてきた．本研究では，大人とのふり遊びを通して，幼児が未知の事物の色や形などの知覚的特徴を学習できることを明らかにした．このように本研究は，幼児期のふり遊びは知識を再現する場であるだけでなく，新しい知識を獲得する場であることを実証した点で意義がある．
