Wahl, Sebastian; Michel, Christine; Pauen, Sabina; Hoehl, Stefanie – British Journal of Developmental Psychology, 2013
This study investigates the effects of attention-guiding stimuli on 4-month-old infants' object processing. In the human head condition, infants saw a person turning her head and eye gaze towards or away from objects. When presented with the objects again, infants showed increased attention in terms of longer looking time measured by eye…

Lourenco, Stella F.; Addy, Dede; Huttenlocher, Janellen; Fabian, Lydia – Developmental Science, 2011
When geometric and non-geometric information are both available for specifying location, men have been shown to rely more heavily on geometry compared to women. To shed insight on the nature and developmental origins of this sex difference, we examined how 18- to 24-month-olds represented the geometry of a surrounding (rectangular) space when…

Moher, Mariko; Tuerk, Arin S.; Feigenson, Lisa – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2012
Although working memory has a highly constrained capacity limit of three or four items, both adults and toddlers can increase the total amount of stored information by "chunking" object representations in memory. To examine the developmental origins of chunking, we used a violation-of-expectation procedure to ask whether 7-month-old infants, whose…

Shinskey, Jeanne L. – Developmental Psychology, 2008
In manual search tasks designed to assess infants' knowledge of the object concept, why does search for objects hidden by darkness precede search for objects hidden by visible occluders by several months? A graded representations account explains this decalage by proposing that the conflicting visual input from occluders directly competes with…

Clotfelter, Ethan D.; Hollis, Karen L. – American Biology Teacher, 2008
Cognition is a general term describing the mental capacities of an animal, and often includes the ability to categorize, remember, and communicate about objects in the environment. Numerous regions of the telencephalon (cerebral cortex and limbic system) are responsible for these cognitive functions. Although many researchers have used traditional…

Keane, Brian P.; Pylyshyn, Zenon W. – Cognitive Psychology, 2006
In a series of five experiments, we investigated whether visual tracking mechanisms utilize prediction when recovering multiple reappearing objects. When all objects abruptly disappeared and reappeared mid-trajectory, it was found that (a) subjects tracked better when objects reappeared at their loci of disappearance than when they reappeared in…

Bish, Joel P.; Chiodo, Renee; Mattei, Victoria; Simon, Tony J. – Brain and Cognition, 2007
One of the defining cognitive characteristics of the chromosome 22q deletion syndrome (DS22q11.2) is visuospatial processing impairments. The purpose of this study was to investigate and extend the specific attentional profile of children with this disorder using both an object-based attention task and an inhibition of return task. A group of…
