| Abstract | |
Being the conscience and the rules practicing relevant issues in the understanding of the moral development, the different scenes regarding the playing with the rules, could reveal themselves privileged spots for the childhood morality. According to the Piaget psychogenic, the game, as it makes possible the free knowledge construction and estimulate social collaborating exchanges, could encourage the overcoming of the moral and intellectual egocentrism, indispensable issue for the contruction of moral autonomic judgements. It was decided in this study to focus more directly on the child\'s relationship with the rule in different situations, using the game as an excuse to study this relationship. Piaget himself , in his 1932 texts, uses a rule game to study the morality and defend this activity as a genuine child institution wich provides the mutual respect development and the collaborating state, essential to the autonomy. Once exposed, the present research has the purpose to investigate different ways of child interactions with rules in games scenarios, combining them with the child moral development, following the piagetian model. In the research, 64 children in their 7 to 8 years participated, divided in 14 groups of 4 members each, on the average. It was applied different rule contact situations: in the first, the children played according the rules described by the experience instructor (close situation), in the second one, there was the possibility of the child to intervene and suggest new ways of playing (intermediary situation) and in the third one was solicited that the children invent a game with the provided material. It was realized a weekly session to each scenario described, in each group, once a day along three weeks. Once finished the different contexts applications, the subjects received a clinical interview, where their statements regarding moral rules in opposite to game rules was investigated. The construction scheme of the collected material was based in exploration analysis by the categorization of the adopted actions, mainly the actions with social intents as, for an example: ideas exchange, rules usage, another point of view consideration, interpeople helping, consensual agreements realizations, conflicts resolutions, decision choices, judgment states, among others. The categories was converted in empirical indicators, making possible to delimit three analysis ways: relation between indicators, relation between contexts and individual follow up of each subject. The results demonstrates different manifestations of the usage and rule understanding according to each analyzed context, with more evidence of autonomy in situations that provided mutual agreements and demanded more sharply the relationship between people. It was searched, by the present research, to evidence relevant matters in the child relation with the rule in a game context, understanding the rule as a important part of his moral development. Some interfaces between the play and morality are discussed, taking as a basis the uses and children\'s conceptions about the rule (AU) | |
