Development of Gaze Aversion in Children.
Scheman, Judith D.; Lockard, Joan S.
Child Development, v50 n2 p594-96 Jun 1979

Most infants did not make eye contact with the observer, the majority of toddlers established eye contact but did not gaze avert, and the preponderance of school-age children gaze averted.
