How to Pass the False-Belief Task Before Your Fourth Birthday
The experimental record of the last three decades shows that children under 4 years old fail all sorts of variations on the standard false-belief task, whereas more recent studies have revealed that infants are able to pass nonverbal versions of the task. We argue that these paradoxical results are an artifact of the type of false-belief tasks that have been used to test infants and children: N...
متن کاملHow Can Memory-Augmented Neural Networks Pass a False-Belief Task?
A question-answering system needs to be able to reason about unobserved causes in order to answer questions of the sort that people face in everyday conversations. Recent neural network models that incorporate explicit memory and attention mechanisms have taken steps towards this capability. However, these models have not been tested in scenarios for which reasoning about the unobservable menta...
متن کاملHow Crowdsourcable is Your Task?
Lately, crowdsourcing has become an accepted means of creating resources for tasks that require human intelligence. Information Retrieval and related fields frequently exploit it for system building and evaluation purposes. However, malicious workers often try to maximise their financial gains by producing generic answers rather than actually working on the task. Identifying these individuals i...
متن کاملA Computational Developmental Model of the Implicit False Belief Task
Do children understand that others have mental representations, for instance, mental representations of an object’s location? This understanding, known as a representational Theory of Mind (ToM) has typically been studied using false-belief (FB) tasks. Standard, verbal FB tasks test whether a child can use protagonists’ beliefs to say that they will search for objects where they last saw them. ...
متن کاملInhibitory processing in the false belief task: Two conjectures
Although it is well established that four-year-olds outperform three-year-olds on predicting behavior from false beliefs, this is only true when the false belief is coupled with a positive desire. Four-year-olds perform poorly in an otherwise standard false belief task when the protagonist’s desire is to avoid rather than to approach a target. We account for this by assuming that the attributio...
