How do young children represent and learn new pieces of causal knowledge? Are the processes that children use different from those of adults? I have two approaches to these questions. In one line of research, I examine the representation and mechanisms adults and children use for causal learning. In the other, I examine a particular domain of knowledge (psychological knowledge, specifically mental states like pretending, learning, and belief) and map out children's understanding of that domain.
