    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "Adults and children rely heavily on other people’s testimony.\nHowever, domains of knowledge where there is no consensus\non the truth are likely to result in conflicting testimonies. Previous\nresearch has demonstrated that in these cases, learners\nlook towards the majority opinion to make decisions. However,\nit remains unclear how learners evaluate social information,\ngiven that considering either the overall valence, or the\nnumber of testimonies, or both may lead to different conclusions.\nWe therefore formalized several social learning strategies\nand compared them to the performance of adults and children.\nWe find that children use different strategies than adults.\nThis suggests that the development of social learning may involve\nthe acquisition of cognitive strategies.",
