Peer reviewedSameroff, Arnold J. – Developmental Psychology, 1971
Evidence indicates that the newborn infant must first develop cognitive systems, through his experience with various stimuli, to differentiate each modality separately before he can integrate any two modalities in classical conditioning. (Author/NH)

Peer reviewedMillar, W. Stuart – Monographs of the Society for Research in Child Development, 1972
Initial experiment demonstrated operant acquisition of an instrumental hand-pulling response in 4-8-month-old infants; the effect achieved with contingent, noncontingent, delayed reinforcement, and the suppression, recovery, and facilitation effects of noncontingent stimulation are discussed.

"The conditionability of the eyeblink response using a photocell method with human infants was explored... The data indicate the feasibility of studying such conditioning in young infants. (Author)

Peer reviewedCrowell, David H.; And Others – Developmental Psychology, 1976
In three experiments, it was demonstrated that human newborn heart rate level can be reliably modified through classical conditioning procedures. Findings support the idea that early learning may occur under a variety of conditions and different theories may account for the results. (Author/SB)

The nature and significance of the conditioning of fetal and neonatal response systems for later learning was not clearly understood. Therefore, subjects chosen for this research project were people who had been trained in experiential recall. During recall the subjects spontaneously reported what appeared to be auditory components of a complex…

The Babkin reflex is a reaction to the simultaneous pressing of the palms of the hands of the infant. (Authors)

Peer reviewedRovee, Carolyn Kent; Fagen, Jeffrey W. – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1976
This experiment examines extended learning over a 4-day period in infants exposed to responsive and unresponsive wooden mobiles. Frequency of kicks and attention to the mobile increased over the first three days and was found to vary with the introduction of a novel mobile on day four. (GO)

Ramey, Craig T. – 1971
This paper deals with three areas concerning early vocal development: (1) review and critique of existing experimental evidence suggesting that early vocal behavior has the properties of an operant response, (2) speculations concerning the role of non-verbal vocal behavior in early psychological development, and (3) suggestions for future…

McGurk, Harry – 1972
Infants in four age groups--three, six, nine and twelve months--were exposed to an experimental procedure designed to assess the extent to which such subjects were capable of discriminating between different orientations of the same form, and the extent to which they were capable of recognizing the identity between different orientations of the…
