“…Van den Broek compared eight-, 11-, 14-, and 18-year-olds, and reported that eight-year-olds were more likely to give answers that relied on information within an episode or scene (close inferences), whereas older children were more likely to incorporate information across episodes (far inferences) to answer ''why'' questions. Thus the results of both of these studies suggest that younger children are less likely than older children to manipulate and work with content in order to make inferences (see also Sheppard, 1994).…”

“…It was not until age 10 that children started spontaneously mentioning the characters' motives (see also Sheppard, 1994). Van den Broek (1997) has argued that young children's poorer performance on measures related to characters' internal states reflects an encoding deficit rather than a retrieval (memory) deficit.…”

Visual Recalibration of Auditory Speech Identification

The kinds of aftereffects, indicative of cross-modal recalibration, that are observed after exposure to spatially incongruent inputs from different sensory modalities have not been demonstrated so far for identity incongruence. We show that exposure to incongruent audiovisual speech (producing the well-known McGurk effect) can recalibrate auditory speech identification. In Experiment 1, exposure to an ambiguous sound intermediate between /aba/ and /ada/ dubbed onto a video of a face articulating either /aba/ or /ada/ increased the proportion of /aba/ or /ada/ responses, respectively, during subsequent sound identification trials. Experiment 2 demonstrated the same recalibration effect or the opposite one, fewer /aba/ or /ada/ responses, revealing selective speech adaptation, depending on whether the ambiguous sound or a congruent nonambiguous one was used during exposure. In separate forced-choice identification trials, bimodal stimulus pairs producing these contrasting effects were identically categorized, which makes a role of postperceptual factors in the generation of the effects unlikely.
