感官为物体和事件提供重叠的信息,这并不是自然界的奢侈。这种重叠有利于注意感官刺激的关键方面,那些冗余指定,并削弱注意非冗余指定的刺激属性。这种选择性注意力在婴儿期最为明显,并为冗余或非模态的刺激属性(例如,同步性、节奏和强度),以模态特定的特性(例如,颜色、音高和音色)只能通过一种感官感知。我们回顾了支持这一假设的证据,并讨论了它对知觉、认知和社会发展理论的影响。
That the senses provide overlapping information for objects and events is no extravagance of nature. This overlap facilitates attention to critical aspects of sensory stimulation, those that are redundantly specified, and attenuates attention to nonredundautly specified stimulus properties. This selective attention is most pronounced in infancy and gives initial advantage to the perceptual processing of, learning of, and memory for stimulus properties that are redundant, or amodal (e.g., synchrony, rhythm, and intensity), at the expense of modality-specific properties (e.g., color, pitch, and timbre) that can be perceived through only one sense. We review evidence supporting this hypothesis and discuss its implications for theories of perceptual, cognitive, and social development.
