使用Hood,Willen和Driver(1998)的眼睛凝视线索范式,对4到5个月大的婴儿进行了三个实验。实验一重复了之前的发现,即婴儿对外围目标的扫视速度更快,这是由中央面部的眼睛凝视方向所提示的。然而,实验2的结果表明,在这些情况下,婴儿受到运动方向的提示,而不是通过眼睛凝视。在实验2中,刺激面孔的瞳孔保持不动,而脸孔的移位程度与实验1中的学生相同。实验3的结果证实了这一结论,实验3在与实验1相似的条件下没有获得线索效应,只是没有明显的小学生运动。综上所述,最后两个实验表明,定向运动可能是眼睛凝视转移后观察到的线索效应的重要因素。
Three experiments were carried out with 4 to 5-month-old infants using the eye gaze cueing paradigm of Hood, Willen, and Driver (1998). Experiment 1 replicated the previous finding that infants are faster to make saccades to peripheral targets cued by the direction of eye gaze of a central face. However, the results of Experiment 2, in which the pupils of the stimulus face stayed still while the face was displaced to the same extent as the pupils in Experiment 1, revealed that under these conditions infants were cued by direction of motion rather than by eye gaze. This conclusion was confirmed by the results of Experiment 3 in which the cueing effect was not obtained under conditions similar to those in Experiment 1, except that there was no apparent movement of the pupils. Taken together, the last two experiments suggest that directed motion may be an important contributor to the cueing effects observed following shifts of eye gaze.
