This is a follow-up to Ronfard, Chen and Harris's (2017) study, which looked at children's testing of counter-intuitive claims. The study design is similar in that half of participants are randomly assigned to hear a false, counter-intuitive claim. This study also involves a parent-child activity designed to elicit children's question-asking.
