Children's play in cross-cultural perspective: a new look at the 'Six Cultures' study

Article Abstract:

This study examines data from the 'Six Cultures' study, a cross-cultural research project on children's play conducted in 1950. Analyses of play behavior in children from six different cultural backgrounds suggest that cultural norms and social environments mediate role playing, fantasy, games with rules, and creative-constructive play.
