ABSTRAKPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat pengaruh media naratif terhadap perolehan
theory-of-mind (ToM) anak usia prasekolah (3 ? 5 tahun). Perolehan ToM diukur
dengan menggunakan skala ToM oleh Wellman dan Liu (2004), dan keterpaparan
pada media naratif buku cerita, acara TV, movie/DVD diukur dengan melakukan
wawancara. Skala ToM diberikan pada 202 anak usia 3 ? 5 tahun, dan wawancara
dilakukan pada pengasuh utama setiap anak. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan
bahwa media naratif secara signifikan memengaruhi perolehan ToM, dengan R2 =
.06; F(3, 198) = 4.192, p < 0.05. Selain itu juga diperoleh hasil mengenai
pengaruh ketiga jenis media naratif terhadap perolehan setiap konsep ToM. Media
naratif buku cerita berpengaruh secara signifikan terhadap perolehan konsep
knowledge access (KA) (β = .385, p < 0.05), sedangkan ketiga jenis media naratif
tersebut tidak signifikan berpengaruh terhadap perolehan konsep diverse desires
(DD), diverse beliefs (DB), false belief (FB), dan hidden emotion (HE).
ABSTRACTThis study aimed to investigate the effect of exposure to narrative media onpreschoolers‟ theory-of-mind (3 ? 5 year olds). Theory-of-mind (ToM) wasassessed using a ToM scale by Wellman and Liu (2004), and exposure to narrativemedia (children‟s storybooks, television, and movies) was measured byconducting an interview. The ToM scale was given to 202 children ages 3 ? 5, andinterview was conducted with their parents. The result of this study showed thatexposure to narrative media significantly influenced children‟s ToM (R2 = .06;F(3, 198) = 4.192, p < 0.05). This study also demonstrated about the effect of thethree forms of narrative media on the acquisition of each of ToM concepts.Exposure to storybooks was significantly influenced the acquisition of knowledgeaccess (KA) (β = .385, p < 0.05), whereas three forms of narrative media did notsignificantly predict four other ToM concepts, namely diverse desires (DD),diverse beliefs (DB), false belief (FB), and hidden emotion (HE)., This study aimed to investigate the effect of exposure to narrative media onpreschoolers‟ theory-of-mind (3 – 5 year olds).
