我们研究了婴儿的知觉透明度。在之前的一项研究中,约翰逊和阿斯林(2000年,《发展心理学》,第36卷,第808-816页)发现,4个月大的婴儿可以在移动的彩色显示器中感知到透明度,但在非彩色显示器中却不能。在这项研究中,我们进一步研究了知觉透明度的婴儿使用静态消色差显示。考虑到图形组织和对比敏感度的发展,我们假设3至4个月大的婴儿即使在静态消色差显示器中也会感知到透明性。我们通过切换颜色,创建了由部分重叠的圆形和正方形组成的透明和非透明显示器。让3至4个月大的婴儿(n = 24)熟悉透明显示器(实验1)或不透明显示器(实验2)。然后,他们面对的是一种统一的颜色和一个双色的图形。婴儿表现出新奇的偏好后,他们已经熟悉了透明显示器(实验1),但不是在他们已经熟悉了非透明显示器(实验2)的双色图。这些结果表明,3至4个月大的婴儿可以感知透明的静态消色差显示。
We examined perceptual transparency in infants. In a previous study, Johnson and Aslin (2000 Developmental Psychology 36 808-816) found that 4-month-olds could perceive transparency in a moving chromatic display, but not in an achromatic display. In this study, we further examined perceptual transparency in infants using a static achromatic display. Considering the development of figural organisation and contrast sensitivity, we assumed that 3- to 4-month-olds would perceive transparency even in a static achromatic display We created a transparency and a non-transparent display composed of a partially overlapping circle and square, by switching the colours. Infants aged 3 to 4 months (n = 24) were familiarised with the transparency display (experiment 1) or with the non-transparent display (experiment 2). Then, they were confronted with a uniform colour and a two-colour figure. Infants showed novelty preference for the two-colour figure after they had been familiarised with the transparency display (experiment 1), but not after they had been familiarised with the non-transparent display (experiment 2). These results suggest that 3- to 4-month-old infants can perceive transparency in a static achromatic display.
