Abstract
⺠Children require reference to authority in order to accept an utterance as a norm. ⺠Once accepted as a norm, they reason as effectively as adults. ⺠They reason as poorly when testing the truth of epistemic sentences. ⺠This is not due to differences in complexity of epistemic and deontic utterances. ⺠Norms are distinct from reciprocal obligations.
