Description

This study sought to clarify the reference domains of demonstrative pronouns in young children. Japanese uses three different demonstrative pronouns: KORE, SORE, and ARE. Subjects (aged 3 to 6) were presented with a referent and were then asked to use KORE, SORE, or ARE.<br>Results showed:<br>1) Young children distinguish between KORE and ARE.<br>2) The area covered by KORE depended on whether the subject was sitting or standing. When standing, KORE covers an area in front and diagonally to the right; whereas when sitting, it covers an area in front and laterally to the right.<br>3) The KORE area shape was the same for males and females.
