To account for these findings it is proposed that one-year-olds apply a non-mentalistic action interpretational system, the ’teleological stance’ that represents actions by relating relevant aspects of reality (action, goal-state, and situational constraints) through the principle of rational action, which assumes that actions function to realize goal-states by the most efficient means available in the actor’s situation. The relevance of these research findings and the proposed theoretical model for how to realize the goal of epigenetic robotics of building a ’socially relevant’ humanoid robot is discussed. http://www.lucs.lu.se/ftp/pub/LUCS_Studies/LUCS101/Gergely.pdf Gergely György August 4-5, 2003 Third International Workshop on Epigenetic Robotics: Modeling Cognitive Development in Robotic Systems Boston, MA, USA Prince Christopher G.
