Abstract | This was the preliminary study aiming to find out the relationship between private speech and task performance in a divergent problem-solving task and confirm with the previous studies about the age-related developmental trend in private speech. 43 children aged between three to five years old were recruited to participate in a divergent problem-solving task. The private speech of the participants was videotaped during the process of devising solutions. It was then transcribed, categorized and analyzed. Results showed a positive correlation between private speech with task relevance and the degree of sophistication of solution. Also, the age-related developmental trend in private speech was partially consistent with previous studies. Finally, implications of this study for early childhood educators and parents were discussed. |
