Peek-a-boo, who are you?

For babies aged 8 to 14 months who reside in the United States

In this study, your baby will see faces of several different women. There will be a total of 20 different women’s faces on screen for several seconds each, and sometimes the same face will appear multiple times while we record how long your baby looks at the screen.

Previous research shows that babies can tell apart kinds of faces they see frequently, but may group less familiar faces together. In this study, we are exploring whether babies notice differences between less familiar kinds of faces or see group them as the same. Your baby will view a series of faces, and we will measure their looking time to understand how they respond.
