经典和最近的因果关系的概念分析进行了检查，以确定因果归因的各种规则。一系列的5个实验报告支持这样一个命题，即3岁到成年之间的观察者主要根据生殖传递的概念来解释物理因果关系，而不是根据其他众所周知的规则，如共变、相似性和时空连续性。这些实验以各种物理现象为样本，既有熟悉的，也有不熟悉的，包括来自传统文化和西方文化的受试者。休谟和皮亚杰的因果推理方法与本研究结果有关，并讨论了因果概念的可能发展起源。
Classical and recent conceptual analyses of causation are examined to identify various rules of causal attribution. A series of 5 experiments are reported which support the proposition that observers between 3 yr and adulthood interpret physical causation primarily in terms of the concept of generative transmission rather than in terms of other well-known rules such as covariation, similarity and temporal and spatial contiguity. The experiments sample a variety of physical phenomena, both familiar and unfamiliar, and include subjects from both traditional and Western cultures. Humean and Piagetian approaches to causal inference are related to the present findings, and possible developmental origins of causal concepts are discussed.
