Laura Schlingloff-Nemecz @laurasn.bsky.social · 16/05/2026When you're getting to know a new acquaintance, what do you want to know about them? How can you find out relevant information? Maybe you're especially curious about how they will behave towards you. 100
Laura Schlingloff-Nemecz @laurasn.bsky.social · 16/05/2026In a previous study, Tadeg found that adults are good at rationally searching for information that helps them glean to what extent a partner will sacrifice her own rewards in order to benefit them (i.e., the partner's welfare-tradeoff ratio, WTR). 100
Laura Schlingloff-Nemecz @laurasn.bsky.social · 16/05/2026Are children also rational social info-seekers? We adapted Tadeg's task to see whether kids understand which of a partner's decision outcomes are most informative about the partner's generosity (=WTR). 100
