Three- to seven-year-olds (<em>N</em> = 171) listened to one of four versions of an illustrated storybook that manipulated character realism and theme. Developmental trends were evident: Older children included more internal state references and dialogue in their retells than younger children. Of note, children retelling a prosocial story with human protagonists included more socio-relational language than those retelling a busy-themed story featuring humans; the same advantage was not evident for stories with animal protagonists.

We assessed 8- to 9-year-old children’s performance on tests of direct (e.g., fact recall) and productive (e.g., inference, integration) learning from virtual museum exhibits. We also examined the influence of children’s involvement on learning outcomes, through measuring within-exhibit dyadic conversation and post-exhibit reflection. Children performed successfully on all three tests of learning; fact recall was the most accessible and self-derivation was the least. Both within and post-exhibit involvement predicted overall learning outcomes; within-exhibit conversational phrases predicted self-derivation performance in particular.

We report on the frequencies of these features across the ages of 24 to 59 months (2–4 years of age), and highlight noteworthy trends in the way children used <em>want</em>.

We discuss several sources of confusion, including a lack of terminological precision, heterogeneity in the experimental manipulations conducted, and in the paradigms and stimuli used. We propose an approach that clarifies the definition and operationalization of sensitivity to temporal synchrony and explores its developmental course, emphasizing the role of infants’ linguistic experiences.
