Document Summary
Eating how fast are they sucking on their bottle. We can tell whether or not they can discriminate between two different stimuli. Taste: facial reactions and reactions to mother"s diet. Object localization: technique- reaching for rattle in dark room. Birth: less blue, not everything correctly matches up. Design: experimental- one age group- 4-5 months old. Results: infants prefer to look at mouths that correspond to vowel. Conclusions: infants integrate sight and sound and expect correspondence. Design: experimental/ one age group is 5-6 months old. Condition 1: second stimulus = audio /ba/ + visual /va/ Condition 2: second stimulus = audio /da/ + visual /va/ Results: infants remained habituated in condition 1 but showed an orienting response in condition 2. Conclusion: like adults, infants" perception of visual information is integrated with auditory perception and visual can even modify (under some circumstances) their auditory perception. Design: experimental, one age group (3-4 months) (method*)
