摘要: 近期研究显示,早期亲子触觉经验和个体的社会性发展存在密切联系。关于这种联系产生的原因,已有研究多从神经科学的角度,探讨CT传入神经(C-tactile afferents)及有关环路在其间可能起到的作用。基于已有文献,本文将提出一个综合模型,系统阐述背后涉及的心理机制,着重论证亲子关系、个体探索行为以及与之关联的心理成分在其间扮演的角色,并在此基础上从研究设计的局限、有关变量关系的多元性以及未来可拓展方向对该领域研究进行进一步讨论和展望。

关键词: 触觉经验, 社会性发展, 亲子关系, 心理机制, 探索行为

Abstract: Recent studies have showed that early maternal touch might cause an effect on child social development. As to the explanations, extant studies have emphasized on the roles of CT afferents and related neural substrates, with little attention on psychological mediators. In the current study, we proposed a psychological model based on existing literature and our previous studies, and in which we explored the roles of caregiver-child relationships and children's exploratory behaviors in the relation between early maternal touch and children's social development. Furthermore, we also examined the limitations as to the study design, the multiplicity of the relation, and future directions that might help us better understand the effect of early maternal touch on children's development.

Key words: affective touch, social development, caregiver-child relationship, psychological mechanisms, exploratory behavior
