A Neural Activity Interpretation of Luminance Effects on Infant Pattern Preferences
McCarvill, Sharon L.; Karmel, Bernard Z.
Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 22, 3, 363-374, Dec 76
Visual pattern preferences were established for 96 9- and 13-week-old infants using stimuli varying in contour density presented either at a low, moderate, or high luminance level. Age differences in the maximally preferred patterns across stimuli and luminance levels indicated that luminance interacts with contour density in determining stimulus preference functions for a given age.
