  • Title: Now I see it but you don't: 14-month-olds can represent another person's visual perspective.
    Author: Sodian B, Thoermer C, Metz U.
    Journal: Dev Sci; 2007 Mar; 10(2):199-204. PubMed ID: 17286844.
    Abstract:
    Twelve- and 14-month-old infants' ability to represent another person's visual perspective (Level-1 visual perspective taking) was studied in a looking-time paradigm. Fourteen-month-olds looked longer at a person reaching for and grasping a new object when the old goal-object was visible than when it was invisible to the person (but visible to the infant). These findings are consistent with the interpretation that infants 'rationalized' the person's reach for a new object when the old goal-object was out of sight. Twelve-month-olds did not distinguish between test conditions. The present findings are consistent with recent research on infants' developing understanding of seeing.
