A) They reported that 12-month-old infants' imperative pointing predicted children's performance well before 50 months.
B) Tasks garnered at 50 months were a direct result of the infants' ability to predict how well they imperatively point.
C) They reported that 12-month-old infants' declarative pointing-intended to convey information about a target object and thus a form of referential communication-predicted children's performance on theory-of-mind tasks at 50 months.
D) Nothing could be determined with regard to social-cognitive tasks as this does not appear until after the age of 60 months.
