Two-Year-Old Children's Sensitivity to a Parent's Knowledge State When Making Requests.
O'Neill, Daniela K.
Child Development, v67 n2 p659-77 Apr 1996
Examined toddlers' awareness of partners' knowledge states when communicating with them. In two studies, the parent either witnessed or did not witness placement of an object the child asked for help in retrieving. Subjects named the object and location and gestured to its location more often for parents who did not know the information than for those who did. (HTH)
