六个实验测试了幼儿对动态面孔和声音中元音和性别信息的敏感性。婴儿被呈现为并排显示的两个面孔发音元音/a/或/i/同步。在一些研究中，听到的声音与一张脸的性别相匹配，在另一些研究中，一张脸的元音相匹配，在一些研究中，元音和性别相冲突。4.5个月大的婴儿没有表现出根据性别匹配面部和声音的证据，但能够忽略无关的性别信息并根据元音进行匹配。根据性别进行匹配的能力的有力证据直到8个月大时才明显。这组发现表明，当使用相同的刺激时，性别匹配的出现要晚于语音匹配。结果进行了讨论，在关系到多式联运发展的关键理论。(C)2002年，Elsevier Science。
Six experiments tested young infants' sensitivity to vowel and gender information in dynamic faces and voices. Infants were presented with side-by-side displays of two faces articulating the vowels /a/ or /i/ in synchrony. The heard voice matched the gender of one face in some studies and the vowel of one face in other studies and, in some studies, vowel and gender were placed in conflict. Infants of age 4.5 months showed no evidence of matching face and voice on the basis of gender, but were able to ignore irrelevant gender information and match on the basis of the vowel. Robust evidence of the ability to match on the basis of gender was not evident until 8 months of age. This set of findings suggests that, when identical stimuli are used, gender matching does riot emerge until a later age than does phonetic matching. Results are discussed in relation to key theories of intermodal development. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science.
