This substitution aspect of demonstratives poses additional difficulties for learning demonstratives, because it requires recognizing that two speakers have to refer to the same thing with different words, and might be one reason for the reportedly protracted acquisition of demonstratives. In an online study conducted in German, it was investigated whether children in the estimated upper age range of demonstrative acquisition (5 to 7 years) understand demonstratives' substitution aspect with familiar ("dies"/"das") and novel ("schmi"/"schmu") demonstratives, and whether they understand novel words ("schmi"/"schmu") when used non-demonstratively as labels (N = 73; between-subject). Children's accuracy was compared with adult performance (N = 74). The study shows that children between 5 and 7 years of age perform less accurately than adults in all conditions. While adults' performance was highly accurate in all conditions (between 75\% and 92\% correct), children performed below chance in both demonstrative conditions and above chance in the labeling condition. This suggests that children do not understand demonstratives in the presented setup. More detailed analyses of children's response patterns indicate that they instead treat words as mutually exclusive labels in any condition.}, subject = {Demonstrativpronomen}, language = {en} } @article{MachaUrbanLonnemannetal., author = {Macha, Katrin and Urban, Mathias and Lonnemann, Jan and Wronski, Caroline and Hildebrandt, Frauke}, title = {Children's perspectives on quality in ECEC as a specific form of participation}, series = {International Journal of Early Years Education}, volume = {32}, journal = {International Journal of Early Years Education}, number = {1}, publisher = {Taylor and Francis}, address = {London}, issn = {0966-9760}, doi = {10.1080/09669760.2023.2299267}, pages = {246 -- 260}, abstract = {In this paper, we want to present research on children's perspectives in the context of participation.

British Educational Research Journal 33 (6): 927-942. https://doi.org/10.1080/01411920701657033), which emphasizes that it is not enough to simply ask children to speak their minds. Rather, they also need the experience that their views have an influence. In the discourse on quality in ECEC, children's perspectives became only recently the focus of extended research. In evaluation instruments, at least in Germany, the inclusion of children's perspectives is rare. In the study presented here, these two aspects are brought together using the example of the evaluation instrument QuaSi. We describe how children's perspectives are taken into account in the evaluation and feedback process in contrast to everyday life in ECEC centres. It becomes clear that the collection of children's perspectives and their feedback to the pedagogues in the centre does not automatically lead to their views influencing the quality of the centre.}, subject = {Partizipation}, language = {en} } @article{LindnerMoellerHildebrandtetal., author = {Lindner, Nadja and Moeller, Korbinian and Hildebrandt, Frauke and Hasselhorn, Marcus and Lonnemann, Jan}, title = {Children's use of egocentric reference frames in spatial language is related to their numerical magnitude understanding}, series = {Frontiers in Psychology}, journal = {Frontiers in Psychology}, publisher = {Frontiers Media S.A.}, address = {Lausanne}, issn = {1664-1078}, doi = {10.3389/fpsyg.2022.943191}, pages = {13}, abstract = {Numerical magnitude information is assumed to be spatially represented in the form of a mental number line defined with respect to a body-centred, egocentric frame of reference. In this context, spatial language skills such as mastery of verbal descriptions of spatial position (e.g., in front of, behind, to the right/left) have been proposed to be relevant for grasping spatial relations between numerical magnitudes on the mental number line. We examined 4- to 5-year-old's spatial language skills in tasks that allow responses in egocentric and allocentric frames of reference, as well as their relative understanding of numerical magnitude (assessed by a number word comparison task). In addition, we evaluated influences of children's absolute understanding of numerical magnitude assessed by their number word comprehension (montring different numbers using their fingers) and of their knowledge on numerical sequences (determining predecessors and successors as well as identifying missing dice patterns of a series). Results indicated that when considering responses that corresponded to the egocentric perspective, children's spatial language was associated significantly with their relative numerical magnitude understanding, even after controlling for covariates, such as children's SES, mental rotation skills, and also absolute magnitude understanding or knowledge on numerical sequences. This suggests that the use of egocentric reference frames in spatial language may facilitate spatial representation of numbers along a mental number line and thus seem important for preschoolers' relative understanding of numerical magnitude.}, subject = {R{\"a}umliches Wissen}, language = {en} } @article{HildebrandtGlauerKachel, author = {Hildebrandt, Frauke and Glauer, Ramiro and Kachel, Gregor}, title = {Coming from a world without objects}, series = {Mind \& Language}, volume = {37}, journal = {Mind \& Language}, number = {2}, publisher = {Wiley Blackwell Publishing Ltd}, address = {Oxford, UK}, doi = {10.1111/mila.12313}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:525-25000}, pages = {159 -- 176}, abstract = {While research on object individuation assumes that even very young children are able to perceive objects as particulars, we argue that the results of relevant studies can be explained in terms of feature discrimination.
