Peer reviewedMorrongiello, Barbara A. – Developmental Psychology, 1984
A go/no-go conditioned head-turn paradigm was used to examine the abilities of 6- and 12-month-olds to discriminate changes in temporal grouping and their perception of absolute and relative timing information when listening to patterns of white-noise bursts. (Author/RH)

Peer reviewedGollin, Eugene S.; And Others – Developmental Psychology, 1974
The solution of relational size problems was facilitated when children were told to find the smallest member of the series. Children who could not do so could not solve the problem. (ST)

Peer reviewedBerman, Phyllis W. – Developmental Psychology, 1973
The age effect in this study was such that younger children required proportionately more experience with reward than nonreward before they were able to improve their performance on reward problems over six sessions. (Author)

Peer reviewedPalmer, Carolyn F. – Developmental Psychology, 1989
Two studies involving 108 infants of 6, 9, and 12 months showed that providing infants with multiple action-relevant properties elicits a rich action repertoire. (RJC)

Peer reviewedCasasola, Marianella; Cohen, Leslie B. – Developmental Psychology, 2000
Six experiments examined infants' ability to associate nonsense words with two causal actions: pushing and pulling. Eighteen-month-olds, but not 14-month-olds, formed word-action associations. Fourteen-month-olds discriminated a change in label but not a change in action when the other was held constant. When language labels were replaced with…

Peer reviewedRussell, James – Developmental Psychology, 1984
Two experiments examined the determinants of children's belief or disbelief of statements made to them by other children. In both, the personal characteristics of the child transmitting the message were varied against message type and age of child receiving the message; transmitter characteristics were relative age and social dominance. (RH)

Peer reviewedFein, Greta G. – Developmental Psychology, 1973
A four choice discrimination problem was used to examine imitative behavior in children matched in mental age but differing in chronological age. The finding that older children imitated less than younger children is discussed in terms of socialization. (DP)

Peer reviewedLewkowicz, David J. – Developmental Psychology, 2003
Three experiments examined 4- to 10-month-olds' perception of audio-visual (A-V) temporal synchrony cues in the presence or absence of rhythmic pattern cues. Results established that infants of all ages could discriminate between two different audio-visual rhythmic events. Only 10-month-olds detected a desynchronization of the auditory and visual…

Peer reviewedTreiman, Rebecca; Cassar, Marie – Developmental Psychology, 1997
Two experiments used phoneme counting tasks to investigate the foundations of phonemic awareness. Found that first graders and college students had some ability to distinguish between monophthongs (as in "he") and diphthongs (as in "how"), and they tended to count fewer "sounds" for syllables ending with the more…

Peer reviewedOffenbach, Stuart I. – Developmental Psychology, 1974
This study tested Levine's hypothesis testing model of discrimination learning with a procedure for determining which hypothesis is sampled without introducing blank trials. (DP)

Main effect of reinforcement for mean response latency indicated that subjects took longer to respond under disapproval than under approval or silence. (Authors)

Peer reviewedCaron, Albert J.; Caron, Rose; Roberts, Jennifer; Brooks, Rechele – Developmental Psychology, 1997
Three experiments compared infants' reactions to videos of normally responsive women varying in eye contact. Found that, relative to frontal faces, three-month olds smiled less at images averting head and eye (H&I), head alone (H), and closing eyes (ECL) but not at averting eyes (E). Five-month-olds smiled less at H&I, E, and ECL but not…
