3 Methods of determining infant perception Visual Preference
– Developed by Fantz– Infant in chamber with peephole, what do they look at
most?

Senses of the NewbornSenses of the Newborn
Sense Newborn Capabilities
Vision Least developed sense; accommodation and visual acuity limited; sensitive to brightness; discriminates some colours; tracks moving targets
Hearing Turns to a sound; can differentiate loudness, direction, frequency; very responsive to speech; recognize mother’s voice
Taste Prefers sweet; discriminates between sour, salty, bitter, sweet
Smell Detects odours; turns away from unpleasant ones; Breast-fed babies can tell own mother’s breast and underarm odor
Touch Responsive to touch, temperature change and pain

Senses continuedSenses continued
Infants legally blind at birth– 20/600 at birth, by 12 months, down to 20/100
Auditory perception good– Esp speech perception
Have likes and dislikes re. Food– Have sweet tooth like many of us
Show aversion to unpleasant smells– Wrinkle their noses at bad smells
Babies like to be touched– Massaged preemies grow faster

Pattern Perception (0-2 months)Pattern Perception (0-2 months)
Prefer moderately complex stimuli over highly complex stimuli
Like a lot of contrast, like black on white

Face perceptionFace perception
Early on, spend more time looking at edges and contours than at middle of face
By 3 months clearly prefer normal faces, and that of own mother, and that of “attractive” people
By 7 months, can categorize and remember faces
By 8-10 months, can interpret emotion in faces
![Page 28: Week 5: Perceptual development Visit website! Midterm in two weeks!](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649e585503460f94b51645/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Meaning of face preferenceMeaning of face preference
Could be simply a result of stimulus preferences
Could be social– Dannemiller & Stevens, 1988– Data from eye gaze studies…
We as adults have a “face processing area”

Intermodal PerceptionIntermodal Perception
Enrichment vs differentiation theory– Senses separate; must integrate vs. senses
integrated; must differentiate
Former is probably correct– Bahrick’s research

Integrating modalitiesIntegrating modalities
Babies need to achieve three tasks:– Attending
At 5-7 months, sight and sound well integrated
– Identifying Can integrate two sense to identify source or objects
– Locating They can integrate visual and grabbing information
to time a grasp properly

Uses “Violation-of-Expectation” paradigm to infer 4 month old infants’ knowledge about occluders

Babies “are surprised” by the impossible event Find the same thing with other object properties
like containment and support Spelke’s research with the moving rod is the same
idea

What does it mean?What does it mean?
Babies may be born with principles of cohesion, continuity and contact
Maybe not innate knowledge about objects per se, but innate constraints
Possess tools to build cognition from birth: object concept present early on!

Later Form Perception: 6 months to 1 Later Form Perception: 6 months to 1 yearyear
By 7 months get linear perspective By 9 months can extract whole from a random dot
pattern By 12 months, they watch a single point of light
trace an object, then act like they’ve seen the whole object

SummarySummary
Infants are born with fairly strong capabilities Infant perception develops rapidly over the first
year of life By 12 months, they can see well and are moving,
and are largely able understand their environment!

Herman, Shiraki, & Miller, 1985:– Examined 12 younger (3 – 4) and 12 older (4.5 – 5.5)
nursery school children who had been at the same school for the same amount of time
– Brought them to 3 locations and asked them to point out 5 landmarks
– Older a bit better than younger, but still not great– Very young children have difficulty inferring spatial
relationships, even in familiar environments

Summary of Perception and Spatial Summary of Perception and Spatial CognitionCognition
In infancy, focus is on what infants can or cannot see, i.e. colours, patterns, depth, etc…
How much is present at birth? How much develops?
Once they see, they improve in how flexibly they see items
They also improve in how they mentally represent the space around them
