	%X This experimental study examined the relationship
between pretend play and false-belief. Eighteen-month-old children
engaged in pretend play with an experimenter using various controlled
behaviors and performed a false-belief task. The results showed that
the children who understood pretend play performed better on the
false-belief task. This suggests that pretended play and false-belief are
related at the age of 18 months.
