I’m happy to finally report the data from the main project of my phd. Over 8 conditions of 32 8mo-old infants, we tested the hypothesis that human cognition starts altercentric instead of egocentric (Southgate, 2013; 2020) psyarxiv.com/7vcmp/ 1/17

Our direct test of infant altercentrism hypothesis is published now, open access, in Proceedings B Bio: royalsocietypublishing.org/d… We explained what we did in this thread, and the new data collected since did not change our partial results: teapawt.net/VelisarM/status/153997…
An initial but receding altercentric bias in preverbal infants' memory

Abstract. Young learners would seem to face a daunting challenge in selecting to what they should attend, a problem that may have been exacerbated in human

This is somehow in line with the altercentrism hypothesis (far from a result we predicted though): tracking the agent’s attention, rather than just gazing at the object, drives infants’ expectations. 16/17

Finally, we are running the First and Last conditions with 12mo-olds atm. They anticipate correctly in the Last (TB-like) condition. Not final, but 1y olds show a smaller effect in the First condition, suggesting a developmental progression out of the initial altercentrism. /end

#BCCCD22 used to be the nicest irl conference, but it's also the easiest to navigate online. Here's a video describing our latest research: youtu.be/jtsQUQ-dGok With @SketchySk , @_emy & @vhsouthgate; booth a-0205. I'll be live today from 20:30 CET
