Listen to the original audio · Transcribed with NVIDIA Parakeet · Why times can differ in your player

Hello everyone, welcome to a new episode of the Decenter. I'm your host as always, Ricardo Lops, and today I'm joined by Dr. Hannah Schleichhoff. She is an assistant professor in the Department for Developmental Psychology at Utrecht University. Her research investigates socio-cognitive underpinnings of cultural learning, focusing on how cultural novices, children doing early and middle childhood

grow into proficient cultural beings. And today we're going to talk about children's ideas about other people's beliefs, belief revision revision and other related topics. So Hannah, welcome to the show. It's a pleasure to have you one. Thank you for having me.

So when exactly do children start considering other people's beliefs? So that's a that's a pretty good first question. So maybe let me first talk about what believes is in general. And I know you've had a lot of people talking about this on the show, and I think compared to the definitions that they gave, mine is rather minimal. But belief is a representation, a mental representation that we have.

That is the first couple of minutes. The rest is $1.49.
