Q

Kretch, Franchak + Adolph (2014)

Attached an eye camera to infants, finding…

A

Walking allowed:

  1. Better visual input
  2. Better social interaction
22
Q

Perception

A

How we see/hear/experience the world

23
Q

Cognition

A

How we form/use/act upon mental representations

24
Q

Mental representations

A

Internal thoughts/states/pictures

25
Much of what we know about infant cognition has been learned using
Violation of expectation task
26
Violation of expectation Step 1
Infants shown event repeatedly until they habituate
27
Violation of expectation How do we know if something has surprised an infant?
They look at the event for longer
28
(Wynn, 1992) 4 and 5 month old infants look longer at...
The impossible event
29
(Wynn, 1992) Method
Violation of expectation task using objects behind a screen
30
(Wynn, 1992) Infants were more likely to look at a _____ structure than a _____ structure
``` 1+1 = 1 1+1 = 2 ```
31
(Wynn, 1992) Infants also looked longer at 1+1 = 3. This suggests
More precise sense of number than "there should be more than 1"
32
Object permanence
Understanding that even if an object can no longer be seen, it still exists
33
Object permanence Piaget observed that before 9 months
No reaction to object once it was hidden
34
Object permanence Piaget observed that AROUND 9 months
Search for objects out of view
35
Object permanence Piaget observed that at around 9 months infants can search for objects out of view. This suggests
They are acting on basis of thought
36
Common test of Object Permanence
A not B Task
37
A not B task is a test of
Object permanence
38
A not B task Infants at around 9 months
Persist in reaching for old location
39
A not B task At what age do they reach correctly to new location?
12 months
40
A not B task By 12 months, infants reach correctly to new location. This suggests that they
Can flexibly update their memory
41
Which study challenges Piaget's OP views?
Baillargeon (1986)
42
Baillargeon (1986) Used which paradigm to test object permanence?
Violation of expectation
43
Baillargeon (1986) Used VOE to test
Object permanence
44
Baillargeon (1986) How old were the participants
6 and 8 months
45
Baillargeon (1986) Findings
6 and 8 month olds looked longer at impossible event
46
Baillargeon (1986) Findings suggests that...
Infants have object permanence before 9 months
47
Baillargeon + DeVos (1991) The finding that 6-8 month old infants have OP was replicated
With 4 month olds
48
Baillargeon (1986) To be surprised by the event...
You have to know the block still exists
49
What is the youngest observed age of Object Permanence?
4 month olds
50
How can the discrepancy between Piaget's and Baillargeon's findings be explained?
Piaget's studied ACTIONS | Baillargeon's studied LOOKING PATTERNS
51
Object permanence discrepancy Children have KNOWLEDGE of the world from early infancy, but...
They only gradually become able to ACT on it
