The development of the still-face effect: mothers do matterAnnika Melinder
The Cognitive Developmental Research Unit EKUP, Department of Psychology, University of Oslo, Oslo, Norway
Infant Behav Dev 33:472-81. 2010..Results further suggest that from 6 to 8 months of age, stranger induced protest flattens out; whereas mother induced protest decreases. The results are discussed in relation to different theories regarding infant responsiveness...
Goal directedness and decision making in infantsBen Kenward
Department of Psychology, Uppsala University, Uppsala University, Uppsala, Sweden
Dev Psychol 45:809-19. 2009..Possible explanations include that they had not learned the specifics of the action outcome; they had not acquired the necessary desire; or they had acquired both but did not integrate them to make a decision...

Department of Psychology, Uppsala University, 751 42 Uppsala, Sweden
Cognition 105:26-46. 2007..Experiment 2 replicates these effects and demonstrates a robust memory effect extending 24h. In occlusion tasks such long-term memory effects have previously only been observed in 14-month-olds (Moore & Meltzoff, 2004)...
