During the past 25 years a good deal of research has focused on how the links between the observation and execution of actions could underly infants’ understanding and prediction of others’ behaviors. In this article, we critically review the empirical evidence suggesting that the development of action understanding is related to motor experience. This research is focused on infants’ perceptions and predictions of others’ goals, but actions involve more than goals which is why infants’ coding of the movements of an action are also reviewed. One critical issue that remains unresolved in the literature is whether the processes responsible for mapping the observation and execution of actions are limited to human actions or whether they generalize to non-human actions as well. Although much of the evidence suggests a difference, we identify methodological problems and alternative interpretations that have not been fully addressed. One reason for these problems is that action understanding has been studied largely through the lens of motor development. In the last section, we suggest that this field of inquiry has become somewhat stagnant and needs to adapt a developmental systems perspective: Action understanding should be studied as a dynamical system in which its development changes as a function of not only motor experience, but also as part of a larger system of developing behaviors that interact in complex and nonlinear ways.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48222,"journal":{"name":"Infant Behavior & Development","volume":"80 ","pages":"Article 102098"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144471657","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First, looking-time measures have been used to assess whether infants’ processing of others’ goals is correlated with their own competence at performing similar actions. Second, studies have been designed to compare infants with different motor abilities and to intervene to alter infants’ production experience, in order to test the effects of this experience on infants’ subsequent perception of actions. Third, cognitive neuroscience techniques have been used to probe the neural correlates of infants’ perception and production of actions by measuring the sensorimotor mu rhythm.

TL infants showed greater looking to the left side of the face than EL infants both over the full trial duration and in the 500–1000 ms trial window.

These findings suggest that elevated ASD likelihood may be linked to early face-processing differences, such as reduced left gaze bias and greater pupil increases in infancy.

In secondary analysis of trial data, we examined whether caregiver BAP moderated the effectiveness of the iBASIS caregiver-mediated support program (received when infants were mean aged 12–18 months) for infant language outcomes (measured on parent-reported and direct assessment of receptive and expressive language). While lower caregiver BAP was linked to increased parent-reported infant vocabulary growth in general terms, it did not actually moderate the effect of the caregiver-mediated support program on those infant language outcomes. In relative terms therefore, infants of caregivers with both higher and lower BAP benefited equally from this support on parent-report compared to the comparison group.

In this prospective longitudinal study, 176 premature infants (born before 37 weeks gestation) were assessed at 1, 4, 8, 12, and 18 months of corrected age using the Neurological, Sensory, Motor, Developmental Assessment (NSMDA). The NSMDA scores showed clear improvement over time, with the biggest gains seen between the first and last assessments. Many infants who started with severe difficulties made significant progress, with some reaching a normal developmental range by 18 months. Additionally, a large portion of infants who were initially developing typically continued to do so throughout the study.

The <em>conceptual</em> questions concern the nature of infants’ representations of social status. For example, what features of an individual or context do infants perceive as status-relevant, and how abstract are the ensuing representations that infants form? The second set of questions address the <em>development</em> of status-based cognition. How early do abstract representations of status hierarchies emerge and are they stable or variable across development and across different situational or cultural contexts? The final set of questions are <em>applied</em> and address how and when children map hierarchies onto real-world groups, and the consequences once they do so. For example, how do early conceptions and representations of status relate to the beliefs that children express about themselves and about others across development? Together, we hope that our review of the rich findings from the past 25 years, and our framework for addressing the remaining questions, may serve as a springboard for the next 25 years of research into the theoretically and practically rich question of how, when, and why infants develop their sophisticated capacities to reason about social hierarchies and social status.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48222,"journal":{"name":"Infant Behavior & Development","volume":"80 ","pages":"Article 102094"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144271766","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Past studies have demonstrated that even infants tend to expect agents with certain characteristics (e.g., a larger body size) to prevail in dyadic zero-sum conflicts. Building on literature suggesting that adults and children associate high status with competent rather than incompetent individuals, we conducted three preregistered experiments to test whether infants predict that a physically competent agent will prevail in conflicts with a physically incompetent agent. In Experiment 1, 14- to 15-month-old infants watched a “competent” agent who jumped over a barrier and moved across a stage, and an “incompetent” agent who failed to jump over the barrier and, as a result, could not move across the stage. Infants looked longer, indicating a violation of expectation, when the incompetent agent subsequently prevailed in obtaining an object compared to when the reverse outcome was presented. Infants’ responses in Experiments 2a and 2b, although not significantly different from those in Experiment 1, suggested that this expectation was not merely due to differences in the agents’ goal achievement outcomes or the heights they could jump over the barriers. These findings suggest that infants expect physically competent agents—those who can achieve goals through physical abilities—to prevail in conflicts with agents who lack such demonstrations. This implies that the psychological bias to attribute high social rank to competent individuals is rooted in early development.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48222,"journal":{"name":"Infant Behavior & Development","volume":"80 ","pages":"Article 102090"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144271767","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
