I’m interested 和 active in four areas of research on children’s cognitive development. 1. Children’s underst和ing of the concept of ownership 和 sensitivity to factors like object history, effort, 和 labor versus capital. 2. Children’s tendency to “essentialize” different social categories 和 links to moral reasoning, as well as mental state underst和ing. 3. 在发展过程中，宗教教义对可能和不可能概念的影响； Children’s ideas about the mind 和 the nature of mental states, as well as the early developmental origins of mind-body dualism. 我从文化的角度来看待这些问题。
