| Research Abstract |
This study clarified the system by which responsibility is formed culturally, based on our concept that both child and caretaker develop responsibility gradually, according to their ability to respond during interactions. Specifically, we collected data from various cultural groups, including those in Japan, Asia, Africa, and the United States, and analyzed the data from the following four perspectives :(1) Reciprocal accommodation of contingent behaviors capitalizing on infant regularities,(2) Musicality in early vocal communication,(3) Displaying and reading agency by young children,(4) Sequential organization of imitation activity.
