    • Contingency is not enough: Social context guides third-party attributions of intentional agency. 

      Beier, Jonathan S.; Carey, Susan E. (American Psychological Association (APA), 2014)
      Four experiments investigated whether infants and adults infer that a novel entity that interacts in a contingent, communicative fashion with an experimenter is itself an intentional agent. The experiments contrasted the ...
