Document Summary
Measure how long you look at the familiar face versus the novel face: perceptual narrowing looking time. How long they looked at the familiar face versus novel face. With the human face across all ages, they look longer at the novel face. With monkey face, 6 month olds show the same pattern as with the human face, looking longer at the novel face. With 9 month olds and adults, they look the same amount of time at the familiar and novel faces of monkeys. This means 6 month olds are better at discriminating the familiar and novel monkey faces, but goes away by 9 months old: perceptual system becomes narrowed in on making discriminations that are important in the environment. Motor development: reflexes (some of the first motor patterns we see, gross v. fine motor control ( gross = like walking, larger limb development.
