"Metaphorical" Mapping in Human Infants.

Wagner, Sheldon; And Others

Child Development, v52 n2 p728-31 Jun 1981

Eight sets of paired auditory and visual stimuli were constructed. Each member of the auditory pair was matched by one member of the visual pair (e.g., ascending "tone/up arrow"; descending "tone/down arrow"). Sixty-one infants with a mean age of 11.4 months were presented matching and unmatching stimuli; total fixation time was measured. (Author/RH)
