Participants were nursery teachers (N = 136). They were shown video images of infants in everyday life at nursery schools. Participants were required to respond to questions about the internal world of the infants and reasons for their behaviors, by using free descriptions. These responses were analyzed and four categories indicative of perspectives in understanding infants were identified: external understanding, internal understanding, background, and internal understanding of others. “Internal understanding of others” was an original category, first identified by the present study and is considered important for advancing the understanding of infants. Furthermore, the following sub-categories of internal understanding were considered to be original and concrete perspectives: “motives, motivations, and desires,” “emotions and interests,” “cognition and thinking,” and “internal understanding of others.”}, pages = {29--36}, title = {保育者における幼児理解の視点}, volume = {5}, year = {2014}, yomi = {サトウ, ユカ and サガラ, ジュンコ} }
