Babies 'understand thoughts' pre-speech

News brought to you by Planet Talk - cheap international calls made easy.
Parents will have something more to look out for in their babies and report to family and friends in cheap international calls, after new research indicated infants begin understanding thought processes from as young as ten months.
Being able to understand other people is key to successful communication, according to University of Missouri researcher Yuyan Luo.
Her findings are particularly interesting because they suggest children start developing communications skills long before they are capable of speech.
With the help of an actor, researchers were able to determine whether or not infants appeared to understand certain behaviour or not, based on actions alone.
"The infants appear to recognise that the actor's behaviour comes from what the actor could see or could not see and hence what the actor thinks, and this finding is consistent with similar false belief studies that involve older children," explained Professor Luo.
She recommends further investigation of this "false belief" phenomenon in infants, to better understand the development of human communication skills.
