Abstract To clarify the cognitive mechanism underlying the social transfer-of-learning effect, the present study manipulated co-actors’ intentions under different experimental conditions and examined how the social transfer-of-learning effect is impacted. Through two experiments, co-actors either participate with intentions (e.g., an active actor) or without intentions (e.g., a wave cat, a passive observer or a blindfold participant). The results revealed that social transfer-of-learning effect only occurred when co-actors proactively performed tasks. These findings indicate that representing co-actors' intentions is necessary for the occurrence of social transfer-of-learning effect and provide further supporting evidence for the co-representation account. More importantly, the present study clarifies theoretical discrepancies in previous literatures and sheds light on how to improve learning performance through joint actions.
