Effects of Attention on Infants' Preference for Briefly Exposed Visual Stimuli in the Paired-Comparison Recognition-Memory Paradigm.
Richards, John E.
Developmental Psychology, v33 n1 p22-31 Jan 1997
Examined the effect of attention on infants' responses to briefly exposed visual stimuli. Found that the duration of stimulus exposure in the familiarization phase was positively correlated with the preference for the novel stimulus in the paired-comparison procedure, and processing of briefly presented visual stimuli differed depending on the type of attention in which the infant was currently engaged.
