Infant Differences in Rate of Visual Encoding.
Bronson, Gordon W.
Child Development, v62 n1 p44-54 Feb 1991
Eye movements of 12-week-old infants were recorded in a visual encoding experiment. Results showed that infants who encoded more slowly scanned less extensively over the stimulus and engaged in prolonged fixation. An experiment with two-week olds showed significant age differences in the manner of visual scanning. (BC)
