In the early preschool years, children engage in pretend play and recognize and share in others' pretend play. These abilities are striking: Given that young children know so little about the world, we might expect them to focus on learning about how the world actually is. But in pretense, the opposite seems to happen--children intentionally misrepresent reality. This observation has led many to view pretense as an early form of counterfactual or fictional reasoning.

在学龄前的早期，孩子们参与假装游戏，并认识和分享他人的假装游戏。这些能力是惊人的：鉴于幼儿对世界知之甚少，我们可能会期望他们专注于了解世界实际上是如何的。但在假装中，相反的情况似乎发生了--孩子们故意歪曲现实。这一观察使许多人将假装视为反事实或虚构推理的早期形式。
