Document Summary
Presentation: parent infant joint attention, one partner playing with toy, the other looking towards those hands we develop models and understand social cues based on where someone is looking or pointing. Hand-eye coordination: visually follow hand movements of themselves or others. 4 regions of interest, 3 objects and the partners face. Parents spent more time fixating on region of interest, switch attention much more quickly between objects and faces than infants. Infants fixate on an object much longer than parent, and infants rarely look towards their parents face. 82% of joint attention moments: target objects in one of the partners hands as opposed to 43% when not in someone hands. High joint attention infants: look at the object handling themselves. High joint attention parents: had more joint attention when object in hands of infant. If competing object in each set of hands, high ja partners came to compromise and focus on one object together.
