Abstract

Abstract: During interpersonal interaction,communicators need to get addressee to recognize communicative intention so as to express communicative information. Ostensive signals are main approaches of expressing communicative intention. Newborns are able to detect the communicative intention via ostensive signals. Medial prefrontal cortex is critical for infants to detect communicative intention. Future study should measure the brain activation thoroughly and pay more attention to the detection of communicative intention in the communicative environment with more than one ostensive signal. In addition,the influence of individual differences and early growing environment on detection of communicative intention need more attention. Last but not least,future studies are supposed to focus on special infants.

Key words: infants, communicative intention, ostensive signals, medial prefrontal cortex, self-relevance

摘要： 人际交流中,个体需识别出指向自己的交流意图,从而与他人展开互动。交流信号是交流者传达交流意图的主要途径。研究显示,新生儿已经能通过交流信号识别交流意图,而内侧前额叶是新生儿和婴儿识别交流意图的脑功能区。未来研究应结合新兴技术更全面测量婴儿识别交流意图的神经基础和多信号情境下识别交流意图的神经机制,考察个体差异与早期环境对婴儿识别交流意图的影响,并关注特殊婴儿识别交流意图的机制。
