Abstract:
A key component of most models of pragmatics is that speakers consider more than one way of conveying a message, and how informative each version is in context. Theories of pragmatics, and particularly pragmatic development, are hampered by the fact that while we can often observe what a participant does (either as a speaker or a listener), we can rarely observe the choices they consider. Here, we focus on the problem that remains once two alternative utterances are available: selecting the most informative one. By providing 3-6 year old children with a choice between transitive sentences that drop either an uninformative argument (i.e. one that can be directly recovered from the visual context) or an informative one, we can directly test their ability to select between alternate ways of conveying the same message, abstracting away from the many other processes required to produce a multi-word expression. While 3 year olds select between these alternatives at chance (a pattern which, based on control ...
