Effects of Quantitative Shifts in a Visual Reinforcer on the Instrumental Response of Infants
Fagen, Jeffrey W.; Rovee, Carolyn Kent
Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 21, 2, 349-360, Apr 76

Results imply that infants respond relationally, actively manipulating their visual environments as a function of their previous contextual experiences. (JH)
