Picturing perspectives: development of perspective-taking abilities in 4- to 8-year-olds
Although the development of perspective taking has been well researched, there is no uniform methodology for assessing this ability across a wide age span when frames of reference conflict. To address this gap, we created scenes of toy photographers taking pictures of layouts of objects from different angles, and presented them to 4- to 8-year-olds (N = 80). Children were asked to choose which ...
متن کاملChoice Facilitates 4-Year-Olds' Cognitive Flexibility
In some tasks, children show improved performance when allowed to make choices about task features. We conducted two experiments to examine the nature of this effect on 4-year-olds’ cognitive flexibility. Children completed one of two conditions of the dimensional change card sort (DCCS), wherein children are asked to sort items by one dimension (e.g., shape), and then to switch and sort by ano...
متن کاملGricean epistemic reasoning in 4-year-olds
Recent experimental evidence suggests that adults incorporate speaker knowledge into the derivation of pragmatic implicatures. Developmental studies report that 5-year-old children also succeed in taking speaker knowledge into account in implicature computation, but 4-year-olds fail. The present study investigated the pragmatic competence of 4year-olds, specifically the ability to incorporate s...
متن کاملAsthma and behavior in homeless 4- to 7-year-olds.
OBJECTIVE Low-income, urban, ethnic minority children have higher rates of asthma, more severe symptoms, and more management issues, as well as high risk for academic and behavior problems.

متن کاملCognitive imitation in typically-developing 3- and 4-year olds and individuals with autism
Individuals diagnosed with autism suffer from numerou social, affective and linguistic impairments. It has also been suggested that they have a global imitation deficit. That hypothesis, however, is compromised by the fact that individuals with autism suffer from various motor impairments. Here we describe an experiment on cognitive imitation, a type of imitation that doesn’t require motor lear...
