We introduce a new paradigm for the assessment of auditory and visual categories in 6-month-old infants using a 2-alternative anticipatory eye-movement response. Infants were trained by 2 different methods to anticipate the location of a visual reinforcer at 1 of 2 spatial locations (right or left) based on the identity of 2 cuing stimuli. After a…

In this article, the author discusses the Yogakids program and relates her experience as a Yogakids facilitator to children with diverse challenges such as attention deficit disorder (ADD), Asperger syndrome, Down syndrome, non-verbal learning disorder, cerebral palsy and others. The mission of the Yogakids program is to educate the whole child.…

Five and eight year old children were studied to determine at what age children could represent movement in imagery. Two stimuli were presented; the children had to decide if the stimulus was the same or different in shape. (Author/DEP)

A review of significant research on subliminal perception and a summary of evidence for and against it. (Author)

This study investigated the effects of hypnotic susceptibility and of suggestion of direction on four measures of autokinetic movement: the mean number of changes in direction reported per trial, the latency of reported movement, the estimated direction, and the reported magnitude of movement.

The study examined the effect of two instructional interventions (equivalence training and functional object use training) as well as practice alone with 21 autistic children (3 to 16 years old) selected for their visual overselectivity. The study had four phases: 1) pretraining in which potential Ss were trained on matching to sample tasks, 2)…

Investigated the discrimination of sibling age and sex roles by second born children (age 5-13), with the focus on changes in discrimination as a function of the child's age and sex, sibling status, sex of sibling, and age spacing between siblings. (DP)

An experiment with monochromatic lights is discussed in terms of the selective effects of wavelength on looking time and pleasantness, comparisons of infant and adult data, and differentiation of the selective effects of color category centers and color category boundaries. (JMB)

Authors compare their model to that of Noton & Stark (1970, 1971), and is found to predict the same behavior but without requiring explicit storage of eye movement commands. (Author)
