The Bidirectional Social-Cognitive Mechanisms of the Social-Attention Symptoms of Autism
Differences in social attention development begin to be apparent in the 6 th to 12 th month of development in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and theoretically reflect important elements of its neurodevelopmental endophenotype. This paper examines alternative conceptual views of these early social attention symptoms and hypotheses about the mechanisms involved in their development. One model emphasizes mechanism involved in the spont…
The Mughal and the Trading of Horses in India, 1526-1707
This paper is an effort to study about the Mughal military culture and socio-economic importance of horses during the Mughal period. It explores the military and economic significance of the horses and its importance in the cavalry that was the mainstay of the Mughal army.It was the Mughal army that was the vanguard of the Mughal expansion. The most crucial feature of the Mughal army was its cavalry. The centrality of the horses in the cavalry re…

Social Competence in Children At Risk Due to Prenatal Cocaine Exposure
The continuity of social competence between 36 months and first grade was examined in a sample of children at risk due to prenatal exposure to cocaine (N = 92). Parent report data on social competence were collected at 36 months of age and both parent and teacher report data were collected when children were in first grade. Regression analyses indicated that 36‐month social competence significantly predicted first‐grade parent ratings of social c…
Individual Differences and the Development of Joint Attention in Infancy
This study examined the development of joint attention in 95 infants assessed between 9 and 18 months of age. Infants displayed significant test–retest reliability on measures of following gaze and gestures (responding to joint attention, RJA) and in their use of eye contact to establish social attention coordination (initiating joint attention, IJA). Infants displayed a linear, increasing pattern of age-related growth on most joint attention mea…
Attention, Joint Attention, and Social Cognition
Before social cognition there is joint processing of information about the attention of self and others. This joint attention requires the integrated activation of a distributed cortical network involving the anterior and posterior attention systems. In infancy, practice with the integrated activation of this distributed attention network is a major contributor to the development of social cognition. Thus, the functional neuroanatomies of social …
Joint Attention, Self‐Recognition, and Neurocognitive Function in Toddlers
Recent studies have attempted to understand the processes involved in joint attention because of its relevance to both atypical and normal development. Data from a recent study of young children with autism suggests that performance on a delay nonmatch to sample (DNMS) task associated with ventromedial prefrontal functions, but not an A‐not‐B/delayed response task associated with dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, was related to joint attention skil…
The Development of Anticipatory Smiling
When do infants begin to communicate positive affect about physical objects to their social partners? We examined developmental changes in the timing of smiles during episodes of initiating joint attention that involved an infant gazing between an object and a social partner. Twenty‐six typically developing infants were observed at 8, 10, and 12 months during the Early Social‐Communication Scales, a semistructured assessment for eliciting initiat…
Child, Caregiver, and Temperament Contributions to Infant Joint Attention
Little is known about variables that may contribute to individual differences in infant joint attention, or the coordination of visual attention with a social partner. Therefore, this study examined the contributions of caregiver behavior and temperament to infant joint attention development between 9 and 12 months. Data were collected from 57 infants using a caregiver–infant paradigm, an infant–tester paradigm, and a parent report of infant temp…
Individual Differences in Infant Skills as Predictors of Child‐Caregiver Joint Attention and Language
Current research suggests that the extent to which child‐caregiver dyads engage in interactions involving episodes of joint or coordinated attention can have a significant impact on early lexical acquisition. In this regard it has been recognized that individual differences in early developing child communication skills, such as capacity to follow gaze and early infant language, may contribute to these child‐caregiver interactional patterns, as w…

Modifying Impulsive Responding in Conduct-Disordered Institutionalized Boys
24 institutionalized aggressive, impulsive males aged 10 to 16 participated in 14 sessions of training in the use of “rules” for the solution of cognitive tasks. When compared to 21 controls who completed the same tasks but were not exposed to the “rules,” the experimental group shifted toward less impulsive responding on the Porteus Maze Q score on posttest
Assessing interactional competencies
Interactional competencies that develop in the first two years of life provide a foundation for all further social and communicative developments. Their normal acquisition, especially in the handicapped, can not be taken for granted. If delays in social-communicative development can be identified early in life and changes made in how the social environment interacts with the child, intervention may effectively facilitate social development. Howev…
