Valcke, Alanna; Nilsen, Elizabeth S. – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2023
To successfully navigate their social worlds, children must adapt their behaviors to diverse situations and do so in a fluid fashion. The current study explored preschool-aged children's sensitivity to a gameplay context (cooperative/competitive) and messages from another (fictional) player (team-oriented/self-oriented) while distributing gameplay…

Siddiqui, Hasan; Rutherford, M. D. – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2022
Essentialism is the intuition that category membership relies on an invisible essence. Essentialist thinking about social categories is most evident in young children, while comparable methods do not reveal essentialist thinking about social groups in adult participants. However, previous work has found that essentialist thinking about gender was…

Brosseau-Liard, Patricia E.; Iannuzziello, Alana; Varin, Jade – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2018

Previous research has shown that preschoolers preferentially learn from informants who have been accurate in the past, appear confident, or have had visual access to relevant information. The present series of studies aimed to…

Hala, Suzanne; Brown, Alisha M. B.; McKay, Lee-Ann; San Juan, Valerie – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2013
This research examines the early emergence of source-monitoring abilities. Previous research has consistently demonstrated that children as young as 3 to 4 years of age do well on simple versions of action-based source-monitoring tasks. Research on even younger children, however, remains lacking. In this study we examined whether 2 1/2-year-olds…

Eskritt, Michelle; Olson, David – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2012
The purpose of the present study was to explore children's understanding of external symbols by examining the relationship between children's production and comprehension of graphic notations and verbal messages. Fifty-six children between the ages of 5 and 7 years were asked to produce both notations and a spoken message relaying to their…

Bialystok, Ellen; Barac, Raluca; Blaye, Agnes; Poulin-Dubois, Diane – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2010
The effect of bilingualism on the cognitive skills of young children was investigated by comparing performance of 162 children who belonged to one of two age groups (approximately 3- and 4.5-year-olds) and one of three language groups on a series of tasks examining executive control and word mapping. The children were monolingual English speakers,…
