    "title": "Culture, causal attributions, and development: A comparison of Chinese and U.S.\n4-and 6-year-olds",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "This is a cross-cultural replication of Seiver, Gopnik & Goodman (2013) and compares the development of social\ncausal attributions in Chinese and U.S. children. In this study, Chinese (n=110) 4-and 6-year-olds were directly compared to the\nU.S. children in Seiver, Gopnik & Goodman (2013). Children were shown covariation evidence that varied across conditions\nto imply that a person, situation, or neither was the cause of a person’s actions. Following observation, children were asked\nto explain why the person engaged in the actions. Findings indicate that U.S. children significantly increased the amount of\nperson attributions they made with age, while Chinese 4-and 6-year-olds answered comparably. Children from both cultures\nwere sensitive to covariation manipulations when they suggested a person was the cause of an action. Only U.S. children were\nsensitive to evidence when it favored the situation.",
