Individual Differences in Infant Visual Attention: Recognition of Degraded Visual Forms by Four-Month-Olds.
Frick, Janet E.; Colombo, John
Child Development, v67 n1 p188-204 Feb 1996
Five experiments tested four-month-old infants' ability to recognize degraded visual targets as a function of individual differences in fixation duration. Found that short-looking infants were able to recognize degraded forms in both vertex (top or highest point)-absent and vertex-present conditions, but the vertex-absent discrimination was more difficult.
