「子どもから� �ぶ「驚くほど� ��れた」ヒト知 能」.pdf

The author, a researcher at the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology, reflects on the remarkable abilities of children, particularly his 2-year-4-month-old granddaughter. He notes that children are born with impressive capabilities, which are often overlooked by adults. The author's granddaughter has developed language skills, using two-word phrases and understanding verbal cues. She also exhibits emotional intelligence, using body language and facial expressions to convey her feelings. The author suggests that children's language development is closely tied to their emotional and social interactions, and that they learn to communicate through a process of "catching" and "throwing" words and emotions with their caregivers. As children grow and develop, their language skills become more sophisticated, and they begin to use language in a more analytical and logical way. The author is fascinated by the structure of human intelligence, which is built on top of real-time perception and emotional information processing, and he looks forward to continuing to observe and learn from his granddaughter's development.
