摘要

人类是如何建立并驾驭复杂的社会世界的?标准的理论框架通常将这一成功归功于分析他人的外表和行为以推断其不可观察的心理状态的基础能力。在此,我们认为这种说法并不全面。人类的行为会在我们的物理环境中留下痕迹,这些痕迹揭示了我们的存在、我们的目标,甚至我们的信念和知识。一项新的研究表明,人类从生命的早期就能轻易地发现这些痕迹--有时是自发的--并能轻易地从物理世界中提取社会信息。从无生命物体的特征和位置,人们可以推断出过去发生的事件,以及人们是如何塑造物质世界的。这种能力发展得很早,有助于解释人们为何对他人有如此丰富的理解:不仅借鉴他人的行为方式,还借鉴他们塑造的环境。总之,社会认知不仅对我们推理人和行为至关重要,而且对我们日常推理无生命的世界也至关重要。

Traces of Our Past: The Social Representation of the Physical World
How do humans build and navigate their complex social world? Standard theoretical frameworks often attribute this success to a foundational capacity to analyze other people’s appearance and behavior to make inferences about their unobservable mental states. Here we argue that this picture is incomplete. Human behavior leaves traces in our physical environment that reveal our presence, our goals, and even our beliefs and knowledge. A new body of research shows that, from early in life, humans easily detect these traces—sometimes spontaneously—and readily extract social information from the physical world. From the features and placement of inanimate objects, people make inferences about past events and how people have shaped the physical world. This capacity develops early and helps explain how people have such a rich understanding of others: by drawing not only on how others act but also on the environments they have shaped. Overall, social cognition is crucial not only to our reasoning about people and actions but also to our everyday reasoning about the inanimate world.
