Peekaboo: A New Look on Infants' Perception of Emotion Expressions.
Montague, Diane P. F.; Walker-Andrews, Arlene S.
Developmental Psychology, v37 n6 p826-38 Nov 2001
Investigated 4-month-olds' responsiveness to others' affective expressions in the context of a peekaboo game. Found differential patterns of visual attention and affective responsiveness to happiness/surprise, anger, fear, and sadness. Findings underscore importance of contextual information for facilitating recognition of emotion expressions and the efficacy of using converging measures to assess understanding. (Author/KB)
