摘要

本研究旨在探究幼兒在不同性別組合下的遊戲情形，從室內與戶外情境初步了解幼兒在同性組合與混性組合的認知遊戲內涵。以台南市太陽附幼一個中班為研究對象，包含十五名男生與十三名女生，共二十八名幼兒。透過自由遊戲時間，觀察幼兒在室內學習區和戶外遊戲場與同儕的遊戲互動，本研究進行一週的觀察，共蒐集與分析三十八個遊戲事件。研究發現，從性別組合來看，幼兒在同性組合中傾向從事功能遊戲；在混性組合中則從事戲劇遊戲。從情境來看，在室內情境中，幼兒出現較多同性組合的遊戲；在戶外情境中，幼兒則出現較多混性組合的遊戲，顯示幼兒的性別組合會受情境而有差異，幼兒的認知遊戲出現的頻率、類型與主題等內涵則會因性別組合與情境的不同而產生不同的變化。

This study aims to explore children’s play in different group of gender composition. That is to understand the content of the cognitive play in same-sex play groups and mixed-sex play groups with different context, indoor and outdoor. The study was conducted in a class composed by 28 five years old children, including 15 boys and 13 girls, in the Affiliated Kindergarten of Sun Elementary School in Tainan City. The observations in the research focused on play interaction between peers in indoor learning center and outdoor playground in free playing period. There are 38 playing episodes in the observations made in a week. The result suggests that, in the aspect of gender composition, children tend to play more physical play in the same-sex play groups but more dramatic play in the mixed-sex play groups. The result also evidences that gender composition might be affected by different context. Children tend to have more same-sex play in the indoor context but more mixed-sex play in outdoor context. Furthermore, the finding shows different gender composition and different playing context could make changes in the frequency, type and theme of children’s cognitive play.
