Intersensory Redundancy Hinders Face Discrimination in Preschool Children: Evidence for Visual Facilitation
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Bahrick, Lorraine E.; Krogh-Jespersen, Sheila; Argumosa, Melissa A.; Lopez, Hassel – Developmental Psychology, 2014
Although infants and children show impressive face-processing skills, little research has focused on the conditions that facilitate versus impair face perception. According to the intersensory redundancy hypothesis (IRH), face discrimination, which relies on detection of visual featural information, should be impaired in the context of…

The Role of Intersensory Redundancy in the Emergence of Social Referencing in 5 1/2-Month-Old Infants
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Vaillant-Molina, Mariana; Bahrick, Lorraine E. – Developmental Psychology, 2012
Early evidence of social referencing was examined in 5 1/2-month-old infants. Infants were habituated to 2 films of moving toys, one toy eliciting a woman's positive emotional expression and the other eliciting a negative expression under conditions of bimodal (audiovisual) or unimodal visual (silent) speech. It was predicted that intersensory…

The Effects of Intersensory Redundancy on Attention and Memory: Infants' Long-Term Memory for Orientation in Audiovisual Events
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Flom, Ross; Bahrick, Lorraine E. – Developmental Psychology, 2010
This research examined the effects of bimodal audiovisual and unimodal visual stimulation on infants' memory for the visual orientation of a moving toy hammer following a 5-min, 2-week, or 1-month retention interval. According to the intersensory redundancy hypothesis (L. E. Bahrick & R. Lickliter, 2000; L. E. Bahrick, R. Lickliter, & R. Flom,…

Satiation of Visual Reinforcement in Young Infants

Caron, Rose F.; And Others – Developmental Psychology, 1971
Experiment demonstrates that the reinforcing efficacy of visual feedback is related to its degree of redundancy. (WY)

The Development of Infant Discrimination of Affect in Multimodal and Unimodal Stimulation: The Role of Intersensory Redundancy
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Flom, Ross; Bahrick, Lorraine E. – Developmental Psychology, 2007
This research examined the developmental course of infants' ability to perceive affect in bimodal (audiovisual) and unimodal (auditory and visual) displays of a woman speaking. According to the intersensory redundancy hypothesis (L. E. Bahrick, R. Lickliter, & R. Flom, 2004), detection of amodal properties is facilitated in multimodal stimulation…

Development of Referential Communication Skills: How Familiarity with a Listener Affects a Speaker's Production of Redundant Messages.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Sonnenschein, Susan – Developmental Psychology, 1986
Investigates whether first- and fourth-grade children vary their production of redundant messages (saying more than the minimal necessary to be informative) as a function of sharing common experience with a listener. (HOD)

Intersensory Redundancy Guides Attentional Selectivity and Perceptual Learning in Infancy.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Bahrick, Lorraine E.; Lickliter, Robert – Developmental Psychology, 2000
Three experiments assessed the intersensory redundancy hypothesis in early infancy. Findings indicated that habituation to a bimodal rhythm resulted in discrimination of a novel rhythm, whereas habituation to the same rhythm presented unimodally resulted in no evidence of discrimination. Temporal synchrony between the bimodal auditory and visual…
