为了确定孩子是只在短期内还是在长期使用之前准确的线人，孩子们在两个实验中测试了3岁和4岁的孩子。在两个实验中，儿童都得到了关于两个告密者的准确信息，并随后测试了他们对这两个告密者的选择性信任(实验1：立即、1天和1周后；实验2：立即、4天和1周后)。这两个年龄段的人不仅在收到准确的信息后立即信任准确的告密者，而且在随后的时间点也倾向于信任准确的告密者。那些能够立即明确识别准确举报人的孩子在一周后更有可能从她那里寻求和接受信息。然而，即使没有要求他们明确指出准确的举报人，这两个年龄段的人仍然对她有偏爱。因此，在3岁时，儿童在接触到关于她的准确性的信息后，会自发地选择以前准确的告密者，最长可达1周。
To determine whether children retain a preference for a previously accurate informant only in the short term or for long-term use, 3- and 4-year-old children were tested in two experiments. In both experiments, children were given accuracy information about two informants and were subsequently tested for their selective trust in the two informants (Experiment 1: immediately, 1 day and 1 week later; Experiment 2: immediately, 4 days and 1 week later). Both age groups preferred to trust the accurate informant not only immediately after receiving accuracy information but also at subsequent time-points. Children who were immediately able to explicitly identify the accurate informant were significantly more likely to seek and accept information from her 1 week later. However, even when they had not been asked to explicitly identify the accurate informant both age groups still maintained their preference for her. Thus, by 3 years of age, children spontaneously choose a previously accurate informant up to 1 week after exposure to information regarding her accuracy.
