Using an eye-tracker, we found that in change-of-location true belief (TB) task anticipated the would search for correct place while FB test they it wrong, congruent place. These results suggest 17-month-olds' psychological-reasoning system is applied actions of unfamiliar agents employed agents' absence any morphological features are typical natural agents. findings provide support theoretical accounts emphasize continuity development theory mind core concepts reasoning skills.
