Katherine Nelson is an American developmental psychologist, a distinguished professor emerita of psychology at the City University of New York.〔(Ph.D. Program in Psychology: Emeritus Faculty ), CUNY, retrieved 2011-04-19.〕 Jerome Bruner〔.〕 describes Nelson as a "contextual functionalist": she seeks "the contexts that give human acts their meaning" while investigating the functions that these acts play in longer-term scenarios. She has also studied childhood amnesia and the development of episodic memory.〔.〕 ==Books== Nelson's book ''Narratives from the Crib'' (Harvard University Press, 2006) investigates the cognitive and linguistic development of a two-year-old, based on an in-depth analysis of the child's crib talk.〔 Her book ''Language in Cognitive Development: Emergence of the Mediated Mind'' (Cambridge University Press, 1998) stands in contrast to the theories of Jean Piaget and others that cognitive and linguistic development are independent of each other, and instead views language acquisition as a bridge that connects a child's social and cultural growth with his or her growing knowledge of the world.〔.〕 She is also the author or co-author of: *''Structure and Strategy in Learning to Talk'' (University of Chicago Press, 1973) *''Young Children's Knowledge of Relational Terms: Some ifs, ors, and buts'' (with Lucia A. French, Springer-Verlag, 1985) *''Making Sense: The Acquisition of Shared Meaning'' (Academic Press, 1985) *''Event Knowledge: Structure and Function in Development'' (with Janice Gruendel, Psychology Press, 1986) *''Sociocultural Psychology: Theory and Practice of Doing and Knowing'' (with Ethel Tobach, Cambridge University Press, 1995) *''Conceptual Development: Piaget's Legacy'' (with Ellin Kofsky Scholnick, Susan A. Gelman, and Patricia H. Miller, Psychology Press, 1999) *''Young Minds in Social Worlds: Experience, Meaning, and Memory'' (Harvard University Press, 2007) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Katherine Nelson」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
