Abstract:
|
In this study, we examine how 3-, 4-, and 5-year-old Catalanacquiring children are able to make use of audio (intonational) and visual (facial gesture) modalities in the comprehension of speaker disbelief, as well as the role of the child’s developing Theory of Mind. Our results suggest that in this case, facial gesture provides children with scaffolding for linguistic meaning, and that explicit belief-reasoning also helps children to infer speaker disbelief. We discuss the implications of these findings for the study of intonational development. |
