In the current study, we investigated word segmentation with aligned tactile cues in 8.5-month-old infants to explore how these infants weight tactile cues compared to, as well as in combination with, transitional probability cues. Aligned tactile cues had a significant impact on wordform segmentation and recognition performance as assessed through orientation time in Headturn Preference Procedure, while transitional probability cues did not have a significant impact. We also explored whether performance was related to attention as measured by heart rate defined sustained attention (HRDSA). Overall, duration of sustained attention assessed through HRDSA was associated with overall longer orientation times regardless of stimulus type, but HRDSA did not vary significantly with tactile cue presence/absence or transitional probabilities.","PeriodicalId":47895,"journal":{"name":"Infancy","volume":"31 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2026-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/infa.70123","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148841741","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study examined whether eye-tracking during infancy can be used to detect differences in attentional development related to infant feeding practices in a generally well-nourished population. Specifically, using data from the YOUth Baby & Child cohort (N = 2647) collected in Utrecht, the Netherlands, infant attentional disengagement was assessed around 5 months (4–6 months) and around 10 months (9–11 months) of age, alongside child receptive vocabulary around 3 years (2–4 years) and around 6 years (5–7 years) of age. While a positive association was established between breastfeeding duration and receptive vocabulary around 6 years of age, no association was established between breastfeeding duration and attentional disengagement at either timepoint. These findings suggest that effects of early-life nutrition on cognitive development in well-nourished infants do not extend to early attentional development or are too subtle to be picked up using eye-tracking. Future research could explore populations with greater developmental variability.","PeriodicalId":47895,"journal":{"name":"Infancy","volume":"31 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2026-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/infa.70120","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148784637","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To expand the literature and address sampling biases, we conducted the still-face experiment with 10-month-old infants (N = 138, 68 female) across three sites, in rural and urban Uganda and urban UK. Across sites, we found the expected patterns of decreased infant positive affect and gaze toward their caregiver in the still-face phase. However, while infants in urban Uganda and the UK exhibited increased negative affect when their mother ceased interacting, infants from rural Uganda did not.

The present study investigated the longitudinal and cross-sectional influence of caregivers' responsiveness and pointing, beginning at 7 months, on infants' HoG and index-finger pointing gestures at 10 months, and infants' language abilities at 24 months. Utilizing a longitudinal design, we assessed 82 typically developing German infants, 42 of whom were randomly assigned to an intervention group targeted to increase caregivers' responsiveness to their infants' communicative signals and object-directed interactions. We hypothesized that in a process of social co-construction caregivers' responsiveness would enhance infants' gesture and language development. In addition, we examined the hypothesis that infants learn about reference by observing caregivers' initiative pointing gestures, in which case we expected positive associations between caregivers' initiative pointing frequency and infants' communicative development. Group comparisons at 10 months revealed increased HoG frequency in the responsiveness training group. Pointing frequency or subsequent language skills at 24 months did not differ between groups. Regression analyses revealed a positive association between caregivers' responsiveness at 10 months and infants' HoG frequency across groups. Analyses revealed no association between caregivers' initiative pointing and infants' communicative development. A predictive relation between infants' pointing frequency and their subsequent language abilities was confirmed. In support of social constructivist positions, these findings indicate that already infants' early deictic gesture use, specifically their HoGs, is influenced by caregivers' responsiveness.","PeriodicalId":47895,"journal":{"name":"Infancy","volume":"31 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2026-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/infa.70112","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148783853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While it is considered a human universal, most research has focused on mother-infant dyads. Given fathers' increasing caregiving involvement, understanding their contribution to early communication is essential. Thus, we have examined early infant-father turn-taking and the role of fathers' mentalizing abilities, which may support turn prediction, and paternal involvement, as it may shape the frequency and quality of exchanges. We observed 39 father-infant dyads in natural interactions at 7 weeks and 6 months postpartum. Vocalizations were micro-coded and turn-taking was defined as a vocal response by one partner within 3000 ms of the other's vocalization. Mentalizing was measured via the Reflective Functioning Scale of the Parent Development Interview, while involvement was indexed by weeks of paternity leave. Results showed little change in turn-taking over time, except for a slight decline in infant turns and increase in paternal overlaps. Mixed effect models revealed significant between-dyad variability; higher mentalizing was associated with fewer paternal overlaps, and greater involvement was linked to shorter overlap durations. Findings suggest that infants are active turn-takers from early on and paternal mentalizing may support attuned coordination. Despite a relatively homogenous sample, results underscore fathers' importance in early communicative development.","PeriodicalId":47895,"journal":{"name":"Infancy","volume":"31 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2026-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/infa.70115","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148707977","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This knowledge can be acquired through observational experience, more specifically statistical learning. Recently, it has been shown that infants can detect in a stream of actions two actions that follow each other deterministically and that their motor system uses this knowledge to predict upcoming actions. However, real-life actions are more complex: actions rarely follow one another with 100% probability, certain actions are more likely to follow one another than others. Here, we examined whether infants can learn the statistical structure of action sequences through observation and whether the activity of their motor system reflects the statistical likelihood of upcoming actions. We trained 18-month-old infants at home with videos of action sequences featuring different transitional probabilities. At test, motor activity was measured using EEG during identical time windows that linked actions with four probability levels. While the planned analysis did not reveal a significant effect of probability, an exploratory analysis revealed that infants' motor activity over the left-central hemisphere showed a linear relationship with transitional probability of action pairs specifically in the beginning of the experiment, when infants were not fatigued, yet. Predictive motor activity was strongest when the probability was highest and weakest when no prediction was involved. These results suggest that infants' motor system is sensitive to the statistical likelihood of upcoming actions and underline the important role of statistical learning for infants' developing action understanding.","PeriodicalId":47895,"journal":{"name":"Infancy","volume":"31 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2026-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/infa.70114","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148707884","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While several studies have supported this hypothesis, most research has focused on school-age children. The present study examined whether differences in inhibitory control between monolinguals and bilinguals are present early in life with the Early Childhood Inhibitory Touchscreen Task (ECITT). This task provides a reliable measure of inhibition control in infants, requiring them to shift their responses from a previously rewarded location to a new one. It minimizes language and memory demands while engaging infants through animations, making it an ideal measure for very young children. A sample of 60 infants (mean age 20.21 months) was tested, with language exposure measured on a continuum using the Language Exposure Assessment Tool (LEAT). Vocabulary was assessed using the McArthur-Bates Communicative Development Inventory (MCDI), and inhibitory control was assessed, as well as a range of executive functions, with the Early Executive Functions Questionnaire (EEFQ). The ECITT data replicate previous research, showing that overall performance on this task improves with age. However, inhibitory control skills did not vary as a function of the amount of second language exposure. The current results suggest that inhibitory control skills do not differ as a function of language exposure diversity in toddlers younger than 24 months.","PeriodicalId":47895,"journal":{"name":"Infancy","volume":"31 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2026-08-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13438123/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148674290","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, one emotion—surprise—is less clearly linked to specific external triggers. Rather, surprise can be invoked by any entity or event, so long as it offers novel information. Surprise is thus unique among the emotions, because once an observer has encountered something new it ceases to be surprising. Do infants understand this dynamic relationship between surprise and information? Here we addressed this using a violation-of-expectation paradigm with 17- to 24-month-old infants. In Experiment 1 (N = 36), we found that infants who saw a person express surprise each time she peered into a box inferred that the person must have seen multiple things inside, whereas infants made no such inference after seeing the person repeatedly express happiness. In Experiment 2 (N = 36), we found that infants did not merely expect to see one object revealed for each instance of surprise expressed; infants recognized that surprise can also be triggered by the absence of objects. Finally, in Experiment 3 (N = 36) we found that infants recognize that surprise is a response to information that is new with respect to a particular observer. Infants were sensitive not only to the number of surprise expressions produced, but also to which person in a multi-person scene had expressed surprise. Together, these results suggest that by the end of their second year, infants represent surprise as the reflection of dynamic changes in the epistemic states of others.\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":47895,"journal":{"name":"Infancy","volume":"31 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2026-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148752427","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Further, constraining verbs facilitated children's target fixation even in the presence of speech errors. The difference between target fixation on correct pronunciation compared to mispronunciation trials was smaller in bilinguals than monolinguals when verbs were present, and this effect appeared at a later time window across trials for monolinguals than it did for bilinguals, suggesting earlier resolution of conflicting linguistic cues in bilinguals.
