芬兰一项研究发现,出生两三天的婴儿在睡眠当中也能学会区分发音相似的元音。研究人员说,婴儿只需反复聆听三种元音一个夜晚,便能把它们区分开来。课题负责人指出:这说明对婴儿实施教育实际上不存在为时过早的问题,并且教育工作者可利用这项成果卓有成效地开展幼儿早期教育。从事婴儿与语言问题研究的心理学家也指出,早期教育有助于极大地减少孩子长大后可能遇到的学习障碍和提高外语学习的效率。研究专家表示,在睡眠中学习的能力 A Finnish study found that babies born two or three days can learn to distinguish between similar vowels during sleep.
