Inferential economics: Children's sensitivity to the cost and value of action and information

Across a series of studies, I will show that very young children evaluate their own competence and that of informants in learning and exploring. I will also discuss the ways in which the costs of information are themselves informative, giving children insight into others’ mental states.
