Peer reviewedMcCall, Robert B.; Kennedy, Cynthia Bellows – Child Development, 1980
Several propositions deduced from the discrepancy hypothesis were tested with four-month-old infants using random shapes in a habituation/discrepancy paradigm. (JMB)

Peer reviewedCornell, Edward H. – Child Development, 1975
An investigation of 4-month-old children's attention responses to pattern dimensions and orientations by comparing the duration of an infant's fixation to changes in the orientation and structural arrangement of a previously exposed pattern. (ED)

Peer reviewedGreenberg, David J.; And Others – Child Development, 1973
To demonstrate a relationship between rate of habituation and complexity levels, 11-week-old infants (N=51) were each given a rate-of-habituation and complexity-level test. Rapid habituators looked longer at complex patterns. Irregular habituators responded randomly to tests or resembled slow habituators in terms of complexity preferred. (ST)

Peer reviewedRose, Susan A.; Feldman, Judith F.; Jankowski, Jeffery J.; Caro, Donna M. – Child Development, 2002
Examined developmental change and stability of visual expectation and reaction times among 5-, 7-, and 12-month-old term and preterm infants. Found that reaction times declined with age while anticipations increased. Infants with faster reaction times were more likely to anticipate upcoming events; this effect disappeared when time between stimuli…
