Outline of Final Research Achievements

There were 3 objectives in this study; firstly to consider understanding of personality trait during childhood as attributional reasoning to make assessments, secondly to assess effects of differences according to performers in trait inferences, and thirdly to assess development of trait inferences and first-person pronoun as well as associations between them. According to the result, the following points were revealed. Firstly, when both an internal factor (intentions) and an external factor (physical events) co-existed as a cause for a event, the effects of presentation order on attributional reasoning or performer’s trait inferences were different between adults and preschoolers. Secondly, the relationship with subjects to be inferred affected the personality trait inferences both in adults and preschoolers. Thirdly, when the first-person pronouns used by subjects to be inferred were manipulated, they immediately sensed the differences and responded accordingly.
