The contributions of language and inhibitory control to false belief reasoning over time by Jill G. de Villiers, Peter de Villiers

“…However, the empirical studies so far have fallen short, in that they generally have too few participants for adequate statistical modeling; they do not include control variables; or they are cross-sectional rather than longitudinal, making inferences about causal direction much more tenuous.MethodsThe present study considers the role of these different variables in the development of false belief reasoning over several months of testing, with 258 children aged three to five years. The children are also from under-resourced communities, broadening the populations that generally contribute such data.ResultsA cross-sectional and a longitudinal regression analysis reveals the contribution of each variable to the children’s success on the false belief measures. …”
