| Abstract | Three studies compared 3-year-olds' ability to attribute fact beliefs and value beliefs to another person when these beliefs differed from the children's. Value beliefs concerned the tastes and smells of substances, and whether stimuli were pretty or not. Numbers of subjects involved in the three studies were 32, 16, and 20. The consistent finding in all three studies was that young 3-year-olds performed very poorly on fact-belief tasks but fairly well on value-belief tasks. The difference in performance held when several different kinds of fact and value tasks were compared and when the two types of tasks were closely equated on other task variables. Children's poor performance on the fact-belief tasks was striking in view of all the help they were given, but their good performance on the value-belief tasks seemed even more remarkable. Subjects may have interpreted the value-belief questions as requests for information about the other person's desires, or likes and dislikes, with respect to the target object. Findings suggest that children may acquire at a very early age the notion that people differ in their opinions about things. (RH) |
