Tactual Habituation and Discrimination of Form in Infancy: A Comparison with Vision.
Streri, Arlette; Pecheaux, Marie-Germaine
Child Development, v57 n1 p100-04 Feb 1986
Investigates whether tactual habituation without the assistance of vision occurs in four- to six-month-old infants. Additionally tests the relevance of a habituation/reaction to novelty procedure in the tactual modality. Results show clearly that tactual habituation occurs in such infants, just as visual habituation does. (Author/RH)
