===Observational causal learning=== Humans use observational Moleen causal learning to watch other people's actions and use the information gained to find out how something works and how we can do it ourselves. A study of 25-month-old infants found that they can learn causal relations from observing human interventions. They also learn by observing normal actions not created by intentional human action.<ref>{{cite journal | last1 = Meltzoff | first1 = A. N. | author-link = Andrew N.
