Dynamic Mental Representation in Infancy.
Hespos, Susan J.; Rochat, Philippe
Cognition, v64 n2 p153-88 Aug 1997
Six experiments assessed 4- to 8-month-old infants' reactions to probable and improbable orientation positions following invisible transformations from an original orientation. Availability of orientation cues, objects' path of motion, and amount of invisible spatial transformation were varied. Results indicated that infants as young as 4 months detected orientation-specific cues. (Author/BC)
