title: Emergence of the ability to perceive dynamic events from still pictures in human infants

description: The ability to understand a visual scene depicted in a still image is among the abilities shared by all human beings. The aim of the present study was to examine when human infants acquire the ability to perceive the dynamic events depicted in still images (implied motion perception). To this end, we tested whether 4- and 5-month-old infants shifted their gaze toward the direction cued by a dynamic running action depicted in a still figure of a person. Results indicated that the 5- but not the 4-month-olds showed a significant gaze shift toward the direction implied by the posture of the runner (Experiments 1, 2, and 3b). Moreover, the older infants showed no significant gaze shift toward the direction cued by control stimuli, which depicted a figure in a non-dynamic standing posture (Experiment 1), an inverted running figure (Experiment 2), and some of the body parts of a running figure (Experiment 3a). These results suggest that only the older infants responded in the direction of the implied running action of the still figure; thus, implied motion perception emerges around 5 months of age in human infants.

title: Transition from crawling to walking and infants’ actions with objects and people

description: In this study, 50 infants were observed at home twice—at 11 months and 13 months. At 11 months, all infants were experienced crawlers; at 13 months, half began to walk independently. At each session, mothers reported demographic information, infants' locomotor history, and receptive and productive language using the long form of the MCDI. To confirm infants' locomotor status (crawler or walker) and examine locomotor proficiency, infants were observed crawling and walking on a marked 3-foot runner. Three published papers report infants' object interactions, object carrying, and maternal responses to infants' object sharing.

title: Pubertal development shapes perception of complex facial expressions

description: We previously hypothesized that pubertal development shapes the emergence of new components of face processing (Scherf et al., 2012; Garcia & Scherf, 2015). Here, we evaluate this hypothesis by investigating emerging perceptual sensitivity to complex versus basic facial expressions across pubertal development. We tested pre-pubescent children (6–8 years), age- and sex-matched adolescents in early and later stages of pubertal development (11–14 years), and sexually mature adults (18–24 years). Using a perceptual staircase procedure, participants made visual discriminations of both socially complex expressions (sexual interest, contempt) that are arguably relevant to emerging peer-oriented relationships of adolescence, and basic (happy, anger) expressions that are important even in early infancy. Only sensitivity to detect complex expressions improved as a function of pubertal development. The ability to perceive these expressions is adult-like by late puberty when adolescents become sexually mature. This pattern of results provides the first evidence that pubertal development specifically influences emerging affective components of face perception in adolescence.

title: 2016 Cognitive Science Workshop: Active Learning

description: Talks and slides from a full day workshop on "Active Learning" at the 2016 Cognitive Science Society. In this workshop, we invite speakers from a variety of approaches to broadly inform our understanding of active learning, including cognitive development, education, and computational modeling. We examine what -active- means in active learning, and include talks on the cognitive mechanisms that might support active learning including attention, hypothesis-generation, explanation, pretend play, and question asking. We also explore how -efficient- learners are when planning and executing actions in the service of learning, and whether there are developmental or socio-economic differences in active learning. The workshop is divided into three main themes, with speakers from education, modeling, and developmental backgrounds in each. After each set of talks, we schedule ample time for discussion, encouraging participants to fully engage with the speakers. The workshop concludes with a final broad discussion on open questions and the future of active learning research.

title: Affordances of Clay at the Clay Topos

description: The “Clay Topos” is a playroom in a nursery school (Takahashi Chuo Hoikuen, Japan) where children can be surrounded by and play with up to 0.8 tons of high-quality soil clay used by artists. The Clay Topos has been conceived and realized by a Japanese sculptor Hideki Maeshima. In this collection of videos, a group of children played freely in the Clay Topos, where the structure of spontaneous activity of children and the nature of the forces that cause structuring of activities can be observed. In the first session, 11 children (from 16 to 26 month-old. Group 1) were invited in the Clay Topos for the first time to play freely for 35 minutes. Caregivers of the nursery school were present and interacted naturally with children. 3 roughly square-shaped lumps of soil clay (about 90 x 90 cm, 15-cm thick, with uneven surfaces) were placed in a row on the floor about 70 cm apart from each other. In the second session, the behavior of the same children in the same Clay Topos was recorded 5 months after the first session. Between the first and second session, these children had played in the Clay Topos for several times. Third set of recordings show the behavior of different children from different age group (29 to 38 month-old. Group 2) when they were invited for the first time in the Clay Topos. All sessions were recorded with 4 video cameras simultaneously from multiple perspectives so that it is possible to follow the behavior of each child wherever they move in the room.

title: Beyond the FFA: Brain-behavior correspondences in face recognition abilities

description: Despite the thousands of papers investigating the neural basis of face perception in both humans and non-human primates, very little is known about how activation within this neural architecture relates to face processing behavior. Here, we investigated individual differences in brain-behavior correspondences within both core and extended regions of the face-processing system in healthy typically developing adults. To do so, we employed a set of behavioral and neural measures to capture a multifaceted perspective on assessing these brain-behavior relations. This included quantifying face and object recognition behavior, the magnitude and size of functional activation within each region, as well as a measure of global activation across regions. We report that face, but not object, recognition behavior was associated with 1) the magnitude of face-selective activation in the left FFA1, 2) larger face-related regions in multiple bilateral face-patches in the fusiform gyri as well as the bilateral anterior temporal lobe and amygdala, and 3) more distributed global face-network activation. In contrast, face recognition behavior was not associated with any measure of object- or place-selective activation. These findings suggest that superior behavior is served by engaging sufficiently large, distributed patches of neural real estate, which might reflect the integration of independent populations of neurons that enables the formation of richer representations.

title: Investigating the effectiveness of fantasy stories for teaching scientific principles (study 2)

description: Educational media often contain fantastical information. Although some prior research suggests that this information interferes with children’s learning, other work shows that fantasy benefits learning under certain circumstances. To investigate this issue and to clarify how different types of fantastical events might affect children’s learning, we presented preschoolers (N = 99 in Study 1; N = 101 in Study 2) with stories that contained events that violated real-world physical laws, violated real-world biological laws, or did not violate any real-world laws. Within each story, we embedded two pieces of educational information, one each from the domains of biology and physics, to test (a) whether there are benefits of fantastical information on learning and (b) whether such benefits are domain specific. Across both studies, we found that children generally learned both types of information best from the story with physical violations, suggesting that such events can bolster children’s learning. This volume contains videos from participants in Study 2 of this paper.

title: Looking without seeing: Children do not distinguish efficient from inefficient means to achieve a goal

description: Observing actions provides important information about other people’s goals and the means they use to achieve their goals. Preschoolers (N=22) and adults (N=22) watched videorecorded actors use efficient and inefficient means of grasping a hammer to pound a peg. Eye tracking showed that participants at both ages looked equally long at the goal target (the peg) but adults looked longer than children at the means—how actors grasped the hammer. Deep learning analysis of participants’ eye gaze distinguished observation of efficient from inefficient grasps for adults, but not for children. Moreover, only adults showed differential physiological responses while observing efficient versus inefficient grasps in action-related neural activity (EEG) and pupil dilation. Thus, children can actively direct their gaze to look at goal-directed actions without seeing whether the means are efficient or not. Moreover, findings suggest that the development of action perception is built from children’s own motor experiences.

title: Multisensory Attention Assessment Protocol (MAAP)

description: MAAP Description: The Multimodal Attention Assessment Protocol (MAAP) is a novel procedure designed to assess individual differences in multiple components of attention to dynamic, audiovisual social and nonsocial events within a single session, derived from standard visual preference procedures and gap-overlap tasks. It is appropriate for infants and children starting at 3 months of age. The MAAP integrates into a single test, measures of three fundamental “building blocks” of attention that support the typical development of social and communicative functioning. The protocol indexes 1) duration of looking (attention maintenance), 2) speed of attention shifting, and 3) accuracy of intersensory matching to audiovisual events in the context of high competition (an irrelevant, distractor event is present) or low competition (no distractor event present). It thus provides 6 measures of attention—duration, speed, and accuracy in high vs. low competition—to social and nonsocial events. The difference between performance under high and low competition conditions reflects the cost of competing stimulation on each measure of attention (see highlight video). MAAP Method: The protocol consists of 24 13-s trials composed of 2 blocks of 12 trials: one block of social (women speaking with positive affect) and one block of nonsocial (objects being dropped into a clear container) events. On each trial, a 3-s central visual stimulus (dynamic geometric patterns) is followed by two lateral, dynamic video events for 12 s—one in synchrony with an accompanying natural soundtrack and the other out of synchrony. On half of the trials, the central visual event remains on while the lateral events are presented, providing additional competing stimulation (high competition trials) and on half of the trials the central visual event disappears as soon as the laterals events appear (low competition trials). Participants are videotaped and/or coded live by trained observers, blind to the lateral positions of the events. MAAP Measures: Duration of looking (proportion of available looking time [PALT] spent fixating either lateral event), speed of attention shifting (reaction time [RT] to shift attention to either lateral event), and accuracy of intersensory matching (proportion of total looking time [PTLT] to the sound-synchronous lateral event) are assessed under high and low competition to social and nonsocial events. The highlight video below presents 2 exemplar trials from each condition in the MAAP: 1) low competition social, 2) high competition social, 3) low competition nonsocial, 4) high competition nonsocial. Note: the precision of audiovisual synchrony viewed in these examples may vary depending on internet connection type and available bandwidth and may not reflect the actual temporal synchronies. The full protocol is played using custom-designed Matlab software.

title: Intersensory Processing Efficiency Protocol (IPEP)

description: IPEP Description: The Intersensory Processing Efficiency Protocol (IPEP) is a novel protocol designed to assess fine-grained individual differences in the speed and accuracy of intersensory processing for audiovisual social and nonsocial events. It is appropriate for infants (starting at 3 months of age) as well as children and adults. The IPEP is an audiovisual search task requiring visually locating a sound-synchronized target event amidst 5 asynchronous distractor events. Visual attention is typically monitored using an eyetracker. This protocol indexes intersensory processing through 1) accuracy in selection (frequency of fixating the target), 2) accuracy in matching (duration of looking to target), and 3) speed in selection (latency to fixate the target) to social and nonsocial events (see highlight video). IPEP Method: The protocol consists of 48 8-s trials composed of 4 blocks (2 social, 2 nonsocial)—alternating between social and nonsocial blocks of 12 trials each. On each trial, participants view a 3 x 2 grid of 6 dynamic visual events along with a natural synchronized soundtrack to one (target) event. The social events consist of 6 faces of women all reciting different stories using positive affect. The nonsocial events consist of objects striking a surface in an erratic temporal pattern creating percussive sounds. On each trial, the natural synchronized soundtrack to the target face or object is played for 8 s. Trials are preceded by a 3-s attention-getter (looming and contracting smiley face). IPEP Measures: Proportion of total trials on which the target was fixated (PTTF, accuracy in selection), proportion of total looking time to the target (PTLT, accuracy in matching), and latency to fixate the target event (RT; speed in selection) are derived from eyetracking (offline coding schemes are being developed). The highlight video below presents 3 exemplar trials from each condition (social, then nonsocial) in the IPEP with the attention getter preceding each trial. Note: the precision of audiovisual synchrony viewed in these examples may vary depending on internet connection type and available bandwidth and may not reflect the actual temporal synchronies. The full protocol is played using custom-designed Matlab software which interfaces with eye-tracking software (Tobii Studio).

title: Rules infants look by: Testing the assumption of transitivity in visual salience

description: What drives infants’ attention in complex visual scenes? Early models of infant attention suggested that the degree to which different visual features were detectable determines their attentional priority. Here, we tested this by asking whether two targets – defined by different features, but each equally salient when evaluated independently– would drive attention equally when pitted head-to-head. In Experiment 1, we presented infants with arrays of Gabor patches in which a target region varied either in color (hue saturation) or spatial frequency (cycles per degree) from the background. Using a forced-choice preferential-looking method, we measured how readily infants fixated the target as its featural difference from the background was parametrically increased. Then, in Experiment 2, we used these psychometric preference functions to choose values for color and spatial frequency that were equally salient (preferred), and pit them against each other within the same display. We reasoned that, if salience is transitive, then the stimuli should be iso-salient and infants should therefore show no systematic preference for either stimulus. On the contrary, we found that infants consistently preferred the color-defined stimulus. This suggests that computing visual salience in more complex scenes needs to include factors above and beyond local salience values.

title: Real-time Processes in the Development of Action Planning

description: We tested developmental changes in the moment-to-moment interplay among perceptual, neural, and motor components of action planning using video, motion-tracking, head-mounted eye tracking, and EEG. Preschoolers (N = 32) and adults (N = 22) grasped a hammer to pound a peg. When the handle pointed toward their non-dominant hand, younger children (“nonadaptive children”) used a habitual overhand grip that interfered with wielding the hammer, whereas adults and older children (“adaptive children”) used an adaptive underhand grip. Adaptive and nonadaptive children differed in: when and where they directed their gaze to obtain visual information; neural activation of the motor system before reaching; and straightness of their reach trajectories. Nonadaptive children immediately used a habitual overhand grip and then gathered visual information, leaving insufficient time to form a plan before acting. We suggest that development of action planning depends on a real-time “tug of war” between habits and information gathering and processing.
