Very proud of Laura and collabs for this one!
There's nothing as stimulating in dev science than being confronted with selective patterns of "failures", and this paper is no exception. The question of HOW infants set up a representation of helping as a second-order goal is far from being answered.

New paper in Open Mind! What does it mean to help? What is the goal of a helping action? We wanted to probe infants' & preschoolers' helping concept - specifically, whether they think helpers reduce others' action costs. direct.mit.edu/opmi/article...
