Kofi left his favorite book in the living room before leaving for work. While he was gone, Lucia moved the book to the study because she wanted to borrow it later. However, before Lucia could return to take the book, Raj found it and, thinking the book was misplaced, took it back to the living room. When Kofi arrived home, he saw Raj placing the book on the living room table. Where will Kofi think the book was all day, and what will he think about how the book ended up on the table?
Respond very briefly.
Kofi will believe that his book remained in the living room all day because he is not aware of the actions taken by Lucia and Raj. Observing Raj placing the book on the living room table will likely lead Kofi to assume that Raj picked it up from somewhere in the living room itself, not knowing it had been moved to the study by Lucia in the interim. Kofi's understanding is based solely on his initial action of leaving the book there and the final observation of seeing Raj with the book. Without evidence to the contrary, Kofi has no reason to suspect the book had ever been moved to a different room (the study) nor that Lucia had any involvement.
