“…However, the generalisability of these findings is put into question by the extent of cross-cultural variability observed in closely related lines of research. Indeed, WEIRD children have been shown to succeed in representing other people' mental states (including their intentions, beliefs and desires) at 4-5 years of age, whereas some non-WEIRD children may develop this capability later on (Avis & Harris, 1991;Wellman et al, 2001;Callaghan et al, 2005;Oberle, 2009;de Gracia et al 2016;Naito & Koyama, 2006;Mayer & Träuble, 2013, 2015Dixson et al, 2018;Moreno-Romero & Ingram, 2021). Additionally, studies in cognitive anthropology conducted on adult participants, from both WEIRD and non-WEIRD populations, have revealed remarkable cultural differences in the weight of intentions in moral decision-making (Barrett et al, 2016;Curtin et al, 2020;Hamilton et al, 1983;McNamara et al, 2019).…”
