Snyder, Kelly A.; Garza, John; Zolot, Liza; Kresse, Anna – Infancy, 2010
Electrophysiological work in nonhuman primates has established the existence of multiple types of signals in the temporal lobe that contribute to recognition memory, including information regarding a stimulus's relative novelty, familiarity, and recency of occurrence. We used high-density event-related potentials (ERPs) to examine whether young…

Wiebe, Sandra A.; Cheatham, Carol L.; Lukowski, Angela F.; Haight, Jennifer C.; Muehleck, Abigail J.; Bauer, Patricia J. – Infancy, 2006
Detection of novelty is an important cognitive ability early in development, when infants must learn a great deal about their world. Work with adults has identified networks of brain areas involved in novelty detection; this study investigated electro-physiological correlates of detection of novelty and recognition of familiarity in 9-month-old…

Zangl, Renate; Mills, Debra L. – Infancy, 2007
This study explored the impact of infant-directed speech (IDS) versus adult-directed speech (ADS) on neural activity to familiar and unfamiliar words in 6- and 13-month-old infants. Event-related potentials were recorded while infants listened to familiar words in IDS, familiar words in ADS, unfamiliar words in IDS, and unfamiliar words in ADS.…

Swingler, Margaret M.; Sweet, Monica A.; Carver, Leslie J. – Infancy, 2007
Developmental studies of face processing have revealed age-related changes in how infants allocate neurophysiological resources to the face of a caregiver and an unfamiliar adult. We hypothesize that developmental changes in how infants interact with their caregiver are related to the changes in brain response. We studied 6-month-olds because this…
