Popis:	Children of 4, 6, and 8 years of age were tested for their understanding that a person who is mentally focused on one thing will be devoting little or no simultaneous attention or thought to another, totally irrelevant thing. For example, while one is busy trying to recognize the people in a group photograph or recall the movies one has seen recently, one will likely not also be thinking about the photograph's drab frame in the first case or one's piano in the second. Whereas most of the 6- and 8-year-olds demonstrated an understanding that task-oriented thought and attention are selectively focused in this way, most of the 4-year-olds showed no such understanding.
