✦ Synopsis


Responsiveness and availability of kibbutz children to mothers and to metapelets in two functional contexts were studied. Thirty-three 3-year-old children, participated in the study. Every child participated twice in two co-construction tasks: once with the mother and once with the metapelet. A factor analysis conducted over the present categories yielded six orthogonal factors: Three pertained to cooperative child involvement of the adult and three referred to oppositional involvement. Analyses of variance indicated that children involved the mother more often than the metapelet in their activities and were more responsive to her. Additional analyses conducted on each factor separately showed that this higher level of involvement of the mother was evident in the cooperative factors. The children's involvement of the adults and their responsiveness to the adults' bids differed significantly between tasks.

RESUMEN: Se estudiaron la sensibilidad y la disponibilidad de niños del kibbutz a su madre y a "metapelet" en dos contextos funcionales. Treinta y tres niños de tres años participaron en el estudio. Cada niño participó dos veces en dos tareas de co-construcción: una vez con la madre y la otra vez con "metapelet." Un análisis de factores llevado a cabo sobre las presentes categorías produjo seis factores ortogonales: tres concernientes a la participación del adulto según la actitud del niño cooperativo, y tres se referían a la participación de oposición. Los análisis de variación indicaron que los niños incluyeron a la madre más frecuentemente que a "metapelet" en sus actividades, y que fueron más sensibles a ella. Análisis adicionales llevados a cabo sobre cada factor por separado monstraron que este alto nivel de inclusión de la madre fue evidente en los factores cooperativos. La participación del adulto según la actitud de los niños cooperativos y su sensibilidad a las expresiones de ofrecimiento del adulto variaron significativemante en las diferentes tareas. RÉSUMÉ: La réaction et la disponibilité des enfants des kibbutz à l'encontre de la mère et de la mère de la communauté des enfants (mère collective) dans deux contextes fonctionnels ont été étudiées. 33 enfants de trois ans ont participé à l'étude. Chaque enfant a participé deux fois à deux exercices de co-construction: un avec sa mère et un avec la mère collective. Une analyse de facteur faite sur les catégories présentes a donné lieu à six 231
