At what age can children initiate and execute a mutually beneficial exchange
Using a novel exchange paradigm, we demonstrate that Australian preschool children from middle to high socioeconomic backgrounds may be capable of executing a mutually beneficial exchange. In Study 1, 3- to 5-year-old children completed a tower building task, in which they were given an opportunity to make trading choices via preset options that could allow both them and a puppet to succeed. A majority of children across age groups selected the e…
Children's imitation of costly rituals
Rituals are deeply ingrained in human lives and play significant roles from a young age. Children demonstrate a remarkable willingness to faithfully copy rituals, however, limited studies have examined whether this extends to situations involving material costs. This study builds on this literature by examining how children respond to matching ritual versus ordinary actions when imitation involves varying material costs. A total of 130 children a…
Children's distinct drive to reproduce costly rituals
Costly rituals are ubiquitous and adaptive. Yet, little is known about how children develop to acquire them. The current study examined children's imitation of costly rituals. Ninety-three 4–6 year olds (47 girls, 45% Oceanians, tested in 2022) were shown how to place tokens into a tube to earn stickers, using either a ritualistic or non-ritualistic costly action sequence. Children shown the ritualistic actions imitated faithfully at the expense …
Developing Cross-Cultural Data Infrastructures (CCDIs) for Research in Cognitive and Behavioral Sciences
The digital social partner
We report on a study in which 4- to 6-year-olds were presented with a sticker-retrieval task and asked to choose between one of two tools they could use to complete it. One of the tools was efficient but verbally identified to be the one that “nobody” uses; the other option was less efficient, but children were told it was the tool that “everybody” uses. Children learned about the level of efficiency and normative-use of each tool option through …
