Thematic Collection: Commentaries
نویسنده
چکیده
This thematic collection includes three failed replications of the initial rotating screen experiments with 41⁄2and 51⁄2-month-old infants (Baillargeon, 1987a; Baillargeon, Spelke, & Wasserman, 1985). Readers should be aware that Lécuyer in France (using computer-animated events) and Slater in England are currently conducting replications of these same experiments, with highly promising results. The three articles in the collection are discussed in turn; order of presentation reflects only ease of exposition.
