Indexing Individual Objects in Infant Working Memory.
Leslie, Alan M.; Kaldy, Zsuzsa
Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, v78 n1 p61-74 Jan 2001
Discusses Needham's findings that infants individuate objects by feature, within the framework of brain mechanisms that index or track individual objects, drawing upon theories of attention and working memory developed in the study of adults. Considers Needham's work as contributing to an understanding of categorization and the effect of object history on individuation of objects in a complex display. (JPB)
