“…This paradigm was successfully adapted to test false belief by Onishi and Baillargeon (2005) who demonstrated that 15-month-old infants looked significantly longer at an incongruent test trial, where an actor's actions were inconsistent with her false belief (searching for an object at the current location), than at a congruent trial (searching at the previous location). These results have been replicated and extended to children as young as 7 months of age using VOE or anticipatory looking procedures (He, Bolz, & Baillargeon, 2011;Kovács, Téglás, & Endress, 2010;Phillips et al, 2015;Scott, Baillargeon, Song, & Leslie, 2010;Senju, Southgate, Snape, Leonard, & Csibra, 2011;Song, Onishi, Baillargeon, & Fisher, 2008;Southgate, Senju, & Csibra, 2007;Surian, Caldi, & Sperber, 2007;Surian & Geraci, 2012;Yott & Poulin-Dubois, 2012). This body of research has provided the foundation for the provocative claim that infants possess an abstract capacity to reason about false beliefs (Baillargeon, Scott, & He, 2010;Scott, 2017;Scott, Richman, & Baillargeon, 2015).…”
