The emotional bond a child secures with its parents has a greater impact on its educationthan previously thought, a report suggests.
萨顿信托基金会(TheSutton Trust)的一份报告指出,良好的亲子关系对孩子日后的教育学习影响重大,远超以往预期。
The Sutton Truststudy says children's early attachment to parents has far-reaching consequencesfor their ability to speak, learn and think.
研究发现,婴幼儿与父母的亲子关系会对他们日后的读、写以及思辨能力产生深远影响。
And the reportcalls for more help so parents can develop such crucial bonds.
报告指出,基金会呼吁多方的关注,帮助父母们认识到亲子关系的重要性。
The study focuses on the application of the theory of attachment - a key theory in child development and psychology.
基金会主要采用依恋理论(theory of attachment)进行研究——该理论在儿童成长与心理学领域颇为著名。
This says the degree to which children are secure and resilient as they grow up depends ontheir own early experiences with their mothers and fathers and how they have bonded.
研究重点关注了依附理论,孩子小时候与父母的关系如何,决定了他们在成长过程中能否拥有安全感以及积极乐观的心态。
But the report from the Sutton Trust education charity, entitled Baby Bonds, makes the case that it has an important impact on children's future educational chances as well as their emotional well-being.
但英国慈善教育机构萨顿信托基金会在题为《婴儿的情感纽带》报告中指出,亲子关系除了会影响孩子的心态以外,还会他们日后的学习生活.
And it cites international studies which suggest this continues late into life, withinsecure children more likely to leave school early or duck out of employmentor training.
报告引用了世界各国的研究,研究表明亲子关系会对孩子日后的生活产生影响,与同龄人相比,那些缺乏安全感的孩子更可能辍学或逃避就业。
They are also more likely to suffer from aggression, defiance and hyperactivity later inlife.
缺爱的孩子长大后还可能更叛逆,更有攻击性,更加多动。
Research director at the trust Conor Ryan said: "Better bonding between parents and babies could lead to more social mobility, as there is such a clear link to education, behaviour and future employment.
信托基金会的研究负责人康奈尔瑞安表示:“良好的亲子关系不但有助于孩子未来的学习以及求职,能规范孩子的行为,还能帮助孩子更好的进行社会职能的转变。”
"The educational divide emerges early in life, with a 19-month school readiness gap between the most and least advantaged children by the age of five.
“五岁时孩子学习能力的差距就开始显现,第一名和最后一名之间大概相差19个月。”
"This report clearly identifies the fundamental role secure attachment could have innarrowing that school readiness gap and improving children's life chances.
“我们的报告强调了安全性依恋的重要性,良好的亲子关系既能缩小同龄人间学习能力的差距还能使孩子拥有更多发展的机会。”
