Abstract: This study aimed to examine whether children working on infra-domain conservation tasks successfully involved cognitive inhibition process. Subjects were two groups of 11 years old children, and all of them passed standard Piaget conservation- of – weight tasks and conservation-of –liquid tasks. Experimental 1 observed a negative priming effect in Piaget-like conservation-of-weight tasks, which was 138.06ms. Experimental 2 also observed a negative priming effect in Piaget-like conservation-of-liquid tasks, which was 67.ms. These results showed that solving Piaget-like task in “infra-logic” domain did required a cognitive inhibition process.

Key words: negative priming effect, Piaget-like task, conservation, cognitive inhibition, infra-logic

摘要： 本研究的目的是检验完成潜逻辑运算类皮亚杰守恒任务是否需要认知抑制的参与。被试为两组11岁的儿童，全部通过了标准皮亚杰重量及液体守恒任务。实验一发现儿童在解决类皮亚杰重量守恒任务时出现了负启动效应，负启动量为138.06ms。实验二发现儿童在完成类皮亚杰液体守恒任务时仍然存在负启动效应，负启动量为67.4ms。实验结果表明要成功完成潜逻辑运算领域类皮亚杰守恒任务，也需要认知抑制过程的参与。
