Understanding that others hold different viewpoints from your own is essential for human sociality. Adopting another person’s visual perspective is a complex skill that emerges around the age of two. A new study from Lund University in Sweden, published in Science Advances, suggests that this ability first arose in dinosaurs, at least 60 million years before it appeared in mammals. These findings
