Elizabeth Spelke, a co-author of the paper and a professor of psychology at Harvard said, across cultures that live extremely different lives, we see common foundational sets of abilities and they are not just low-level kinds of abilities that humans share with other animals, but abilities that are at the center of human thinking at its highest reaches. Dr. Spelke sees in these results evidence of the universality of human thought processes.
