Sat, March 21, 9:55 to 11:25am, Marriott, Floor: Level 4, Franklin Hall 3Session Type: Paper Session
Integrative Statement
This symposium brings together research from four different labs, each focusing on social inferences infants and toddlers make from observing familiar and unusual causal events as well as probabilistic and nonrandom sampling behaviors. Together, these papers provide new insight into the cues very young children use to learn about people.
