Visual Expectation and Dimensions of Infant Information Processing.

Jacobson, Sandra W.; And Others

Child Development, v63 n3 p711-24 Jun 1992

Six-month-old African-American infants' expectation of a visual stimulus was related to developmental measures. Reaction time was related to eye fixation in tests that measured visual recognition memory (VRM) and presented objects of different shapes to the infant. Reaction time and infants' stimulus expectation predicted VRM novelty preference. (BC)
