{ "pk": 29640, "title": "Imitation inhibition training enhances perspective taking in preschoolers", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Adults (Keysar et al, 2000) and children (Epley et al, 2004) sometimes commit egocentric errors when interpreting otherscommunication, if the self-perspective differs from the speakers perspective. Training imitation inhibition reduces egocen-tric error in adults (Santiesteban et al., 2011), presumably because it makes salient the distinction between self and other.As managing the self-other perspective difference may undergo developmental changes during preschool years (South-gate, in press), we tested whether a social imitation inhibition training may reduce egocentric mistakes in 3-6-year-oldchildren. Results with n=47 (of n=50 preregistered) children show that the imitation inhibition group selected the object towhich the speaker referred more often than children in a control condition (F(1,35)=5.346, p=.026). However, there wasan interaction with age (F(2,35)=3.805, p=.032): only 4-year-olds, but neither 3- nor 6-year-olds, were more accurate inthe inhibition group. Childrens reaction times and hesitation will be analyzed on the final sample.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [], "section": "Poster Session 1", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/1rf569cn", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Dora", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Kampis", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Copenhagen", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Helle", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Duplessy", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Copenhagen", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Victoria", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Southgate", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Copenhagen", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2020-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/29640/galley/19498/download/" } ] }
