Infants' Reliance on a Social Criterion for Establishing Word-Object Relations.
Baldwin, Dare A.; And Others
Child Development, v67 n6 p3135-53 Dec 1996
While investigating a novel toy, infants heard a novel label applied to the toy by a speaker seated within the infant's view and attending to the toy (coupled condition) or by a speaker outside the infant's view (decoupled condition). Found that infants registered a link between the label and toy in the coupled but not the decoupled condition. (BC)
