  • A Multilab Study of Bilingual Infants

    Open AccessKrista Byers-Heinlein, Angeline Sin Mei Tsui et al.ARTICLEAdvances in Methods and Practices…2021

    From the earliest months of life, infants prefer listening to and learn better from infant-directed speech (IDS) than adult-directed speech (ADS). Yet, IDS differs within communities, across languages, and across cultures, both in form and in prevalence. This large-scale, multi-site study used the diversity of bilingual infant experiences to explore the impact of different types of linguistic experience on infants' IDS preference. As part of the …

  • The development of gaze following in monolingual and bilingual infants

    Open AccessKrista Byers-Heinlein, Rachel Ka Ying Tsui et al.ARTICLEInfancy2021

    Determining the meanings of words requires language learners to attend to what other people say. However, it behooves a young language learner to simultaneously encode relevant non‐verbal cues, for example, by following the direction of their eye gaze. Sensitivity to cues such as eye gaze might be particularly important for bilingual infants, as they encounter less consistency between words and objects than monolingual infants, and do not always …

  • Quantifying Sources of Variability in Infancy Research Using the Infant-Directed-Speech Preference

    Open AccessMichael C Frank, Katie Alcock et al.ARTICLEAdvances in Methods and Practices…2020

    Psychological scientists have become increasingly concerned with issues related to methodology and replicability, and infancy researchers in particular face specific challenges related to replicability: For example, high-powered studies are difficult to conduct, testing conditions vary across labs, and different labs have access to different infant populations. Addressing these concerns, we report on a large-scale, multisite study aimed at (a) as…

  • Statistical treatment of looking-time data

    Open AccessGergely Csibra, Mikołaj Hernik et al.ARTICLEDevelopmental Psychology2016Cited by: 10References: 10

    Looking times (LTs) are frequently measured in empirical research on infant cognition. We analyzed the statistical distribution of LTs across participants to develop recommendations for their treatment in infancy research. Our analyses focused on a common within-subject experimental design, in which longer looking to novel or unexpected stimuli is predicted. We analyzed data from 2 sources: an in-house set of LTs that included data from individua…

  • Knowing who likes who

    Open AccessLara Platten, Mikołaj Hernik et al.ARTICLEEuropean Journal of Social…2010Cited by: 2References: 69

    Group biases based on broad category membership appear early in human development. However, like many other primates humans inhabit social worlds also characterised by small groups of social coalitions which are not demarcated by visible signs or social markers. A critical cognitive challenge for a young child is thus how to extract information concerning coalition structure when coalitions are dynamic and may lack stable and outwardly visible cu…
