Black and White: Visual Stimulation For Babies (2017) is a board book of high-contrast images "designed to stimulate brain growth and visual development in young babies" using traditional Pacific Northwest Coast imagery.
A seven-week-old human baby following a kinetic object. Infant vision concerns the development of visual ability in human infants from birth through the first years of life. The aspects of human vision which develop following birth include visual acuity, tracking, color perception, depth perception, and object recognition.
Robert Lowell Fantz [1] (1925–1981) [2] was an American developmental psychologist who pioneered several studies into infant perception. In particular, the preferential looking paradigm introduced by Fantz in the 1961 is widely used in cognitive development and categorization studies among small babies.
In neurology and neuroscience research, steady state visually evoked potentials (SSVEPs) are signals that are natural responses to visual stimulation at specific frequencies. When the retina is excited by a visual stimulus ranging from 3.5 Hz to 75 Hz, [ 1 ] the brain generates electrical activity at the same (or multiples of) frequency of the ...
This mother is encouraging her child to crawl across the visual cliff. Despite a physical surface covering the cliff, the child hesitates to move forward. The visual cliff is an apparatus created by psychologists Eleanor J. Gibson and Richard D. Walk at Cornell University to investigate depth perception in human and other animal species. It ...
Experimenting with Babies: 50 Amazing Science Projects You Can Perform on Your Kid is a 2013 non-fiction book written by Shaun Gallagher and illustrated by Colin Hayes. The book provides a series of home-based experiments that can be performed on infants aged birth to two years to test their cognitive, motor, social and behavioural development.
The Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development (version 4 was released September 2019) is a standard series of measurements originally developed by psychologist Nancy Bayley used primarily to assess the development of infants and toddlers, ages 1–42 months. [1]
The findings were that infants with Down’s syndrome were able to discriminate between novel and familiar visual stimuli but were around two months behind typical infant development. [ 3 ] Preferential looking experiments have been cited in support of hypotheses regarding a wide range of inborn cognitive capacities such as depth perception ...
