Examined whether
toddlers would use information presented through video to solve
a retrieval problem. Found that 2.5-year-olds were very successful
at finding a hidden toy based on viewing a televised hiding event,
but 2-year-olds were not. Substantially better performance was achieved
by other 2-year-olds who either watched or believed they were watching
the hiding event directly. (Author)
