Moyu19 Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 Hello everyone! I'm a psychology student and I'm currently working on this very interesting article written by Onisihi and Baillargeon. Here's a link to read it : https://www.researchgate.net/publication/7915866_Do_15-Month-Old_Infants_Understand_False_Beliefs It deals with children's theory of mind. The authors have tried to examine if 15 months old infant are able to understand false belief (and thus if they had an implicit theory of mind). In their experiment, they've used the paradigm called violation of expectation. Can someone explain me what is the role of the familiarization task in this paradigm and more precisely in Onishi and baillargeon's exepriment? Is it only to show to the infant that the actor's aim was just to find the toy? Thanks for your help :) Psyhopeful, Mbp213, I/O2019 and 2 others 5
