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
Q

Much of what we know about infant cognition has been learned using

A

Violation of expectation task

26
Q

Violation of expectation

Step 1

A

Infants shown event repeatedly until they habituate

27
Q

Violation of expectation

How do we know if something has surprised an infant?

A

They look at the event for longer

28
Q

(Wynn, 1992)

4 and 5 month old infants look longer at…

A

The impossible event

29
Q

(Wynn, 1992)

Method

A

Violation of expectation task using objects behind a screen

30
Q

(Wynn, 1992)

Infants were more likely to look at a _____ structure than a _____ structure

A
1+1 = 1
1+1 = 2
31
Q

(Wynn, 1992)

Infants also looked longer at 1+1 = 3. This suggests

A

More precise sense of number than “there should be more than 1”

32
Q

Object permanence

A

Understanding that even if an object can no longer be seen, it still exists

33
Q

Object permanence

Piaget observed that before 9 months

A

No reaction to object once it was hidden

34
Q

Object permanence

Piaget observed that AROUND 9 months

A

Search for objects out of view

35
Q

Object permanence

Piaget observed that at around 9 months infants can search for objects out of view. This suggests

A

They are acting on basis of thought

36
Q

Common test of Object Permanence

A

A not B Task

37
Q

A not B task is a test of

A

Object permanence

38
Q

A not B task

Infants at around 9 months

A

Persist in reaching for old location

39
Q

A not B task

At what age do they reach correctly to new location?

A

12 months

40
Q

A not B task

By 12 months, infants reach correctly to new location. This suggests that they

A

Can flexibly update their memory

41
Q

Which study challenges Piaget’s OP views?

A

Baillargeon (1986)

42
Q

Baillargeon (1986)

Used which paradigm to test object permanence?

A

Violation of expectation

43
Q

Baillargeon (1986)

Used VOE to test

A

Object permanence

44
Q

Baillargeon (1986)

How old were the participants

A

6 and 8 months

45
Q

Baillargeon (1986)

Findings

A

6 and 8 month olds looked longer at impossible event

46
Q

Baillargeon (1986)

Findings suggests that…

A

Infants have object permanence before 9 months

47
Q

Baillargeon + DeVos (1991)

The finding that 6-8 month old infants have OP was replicated

A

With 4 month olds

48
Q

Baillargeon (1986)

To be surprised by the event…

A

You have to know the block still exists

49
Q

What is the youngest observed age of Object Permanence?

A

4 month olds

50
Q

How can the discrepancy between Piaget’s and Baillargeon’s findings be explained?

A

Piaget’s studied ACTIONS

Baillargeon’s studied LOOKING PATTERNS

51
Q

Object permanence discrepancy

Children have KNOWLEDGE of the world from early infancy, but…

A

They only gradually become able to ACT on it
