Looking and Listening Patterns in 4- and 8- Month-Old Infants: Correspondence between Measures of Attention
… infancy has been traditionally studied using visual habituation and paired-comparison techniques. There has been extensive work within the field of infant attention that has focused on the development of visual attention. Within this field, it has been well established that there are two …

The role of context in infant preference for father's voice
… male and female four-month-olds were tested in a visual-fixation preference procedure. Attentional preference was measured by the amount of time the infants watched a visual stimulus. It was found that infants did not show greater attentional or affective responsiveness to paternal ID over …

Relative habituation and recovery of visual attention to orientation-movement compounds by newborn infants.
… wave gratings (stripes) and their level of visual fixation was recorded. The results indicated that newborns are capable of detecting spatial orientation changes in stationary and moving stimuli. Moreover, the findings indicated that newborn infants were capable of detecting direction of …

The Role of Multisensory Information in Infants' Recognition of their Fathers
… examining the role of multisensory information (visual and auditory cues). All infants were 4-months-old and were tested in a visual-fixation preference procedure. The two measures of interest were attention and affective responsiveness. Preference was measured by the amount of time the infants …

Population Coding In Laminar Cortical Circuits
… of the population code adapt to changes in visual input, and how population coding influences behavioral performance. To this end, we performed a series of novel experiments to investigate how sensory information in the primary visual cortex (V1) emerges across laminar cortical circuits. …

Auditory Stimulation of Comatose Patient : An Exploratory Case Study
… resumption of oculocephalic reflex, return of visual fixation and following, and spontaneous blinking to auditory and tactile stimulation. Additional behavioral changes included spontaneous and purposeful motor activities of all extremities and head turning in response to auditory and tactile …

Impact of prenatal maternal stress on infant cognition and modifications of effects by exposure to phthalates
… of recognition memory) in boys only; shorter visual fixations, which may indicate faster information processing speed, in girls only; and longer trial durations, which suggests a detriment in visual attention, in boys and girls. Stressful life event models showed significant associations with …

The control of fixational eye movements
… large eye movements (saccades) and miniature or fixational eye movements. Most of our visual perception occurs while we are fixating. However, our eyes are perpetually in motion. Properties of these fixational eye movements, which are partly controlled by the brainstem, change depending on the …
