- Oh hey, our new paper is out! Led by Katarina Begus, we explored 16m olds reasoning. Infant's theta response discerned between predicted confounded & uncon events, suggesting that infants can strategically direct attention to events that are likely to reveal informative evidence.16-month-old infants showed heightened theta oscillations for informative versus uninformative causal evidence. This relationship was more pronounced in infants who subsequently made correct predictions based on this information. @E_Bonawitz nature.com/articles/s4427…
