The Origins of Joint Visual Attention in Infants.
Corkum, Valerie; Moore, Chris
Developmental Psychology, v34 n1 p28-38 Jan 1998
Two experiments examined the origins of joint visual attention in 6- to 11-month-olds with a training procedure. Results indicated that joint visual attention does not reliably appear prior to 10 months; from about 8 months, a gaze-following response can be learned; and simple learning is not sufficient as the mechanism through which joint attention cues acquire signal value.
