Fourteen triads of 4-5 year olds and 8 triads of 7-8 year olds were video-taped playing “doctors and nurses” in a pretend hospital at school. The tapes were analysed in terms of the “scripts” or sequences of activities displayed by the children. These analyses suggest that children were aware of the serial order of activities that occur in medical examinations, though this was clearer among the older children. The data are discussed in terms of the relevance of “script theory” for understanding developmental changes in children's beliefs about hospitals and medical procedures. |
