Iperception 2:418-27. 2011
..Our results suggest that this, perhaps together with a weaker bias to perceive faces as convex, allows these infants to see the screen-based hollow face as hollow even though adults perceive it as convex...
Infants can't discriminate the orientation of a grating surrounded by an oblique squareAki Tsuruhara
