The Sally-Anne False Belief Task

Now that Sally has returned, the participant (you in this case) is asked three questions. The first of these is about Sally's belief:

Where will Sally look for the marble? You have to decide whether Sally will look:

  • in the basket, where she put her marble before she left the room, or
  • in the box, where Anne put it whilst Sally was out of the room?

Which option do you think is correct? Choose an option opposite for feedback on each selection.

If you cannot decide try playing the animation again first.
