This doesn't occur before the formal operational stage.
According to Jean Piaget, a Swiss psychologist, every person goes through 4 developmental stages:
- sensorimotor : birth - 24 months
- preoperational: 24 months - age 7

Only when we reach the final stage of development can we put ourselves in somebody else's shoes and see things from their perspective, according to Piaget.
The results of new evidences can bring about a change in scientific knowledge

Scientific knowledge is attained when there is experimental and observational confirmation. Scientific knowledge may also be subjected to change due to changes in the technology and the new tactics which are incorporated while observing the experiments.
