Spatial Determinants in the Perception of Self-Produced Leg Movements by 3- to 5-Month-Old Infants.

Rochat, Philippe; Morgan, Rachel

Developmental Psychology, v31 n4 p626-36 Jul 1995

Three experiments examined infants' perceptions of their own leg movements as presented to them via online video that varied the spatial orientation and directionality of movement. The infants looked significantly longer and generated significantly more leg activity while looking at the view displaying a left-right inversion than while looking at other views. (MDM)
