Is Agency Skin Deep? Surface Attributes Influence Infants’ Sensitivity to Goal-Directed Action
Three studies investigated the role of surface attributes in infants’ identification of agents, using a habituation paradigm designed to tap infants’ interpretation of grasping as goal directed (Woodward, 1998). When they viewed a bare human hand grasping objects, 7and 12-month-old infants focused on the relation between the hand and its goal. When the surface properties of the hand were obscur...
متن کاملCorticostriatal Control of Goal-Directed Action Is Impaired in Schizophrenia
BACKGROUND Goal-directed actions depend on our capacity to integrate the anticipated consequences of an action with the value of those consequences, with the latter derived from direct experience or inferred from predictive stimuli. Schizophrenia is associated with poor goal-directed performance, but whether this reflects a deficit in experienced or predicted value or in integrating these value...
متن کاملGoal-directed action is automatically biased towards looming motion
It is known that looming motion can capture attention regardless of an observer's intentions. Real-world behavior, however, frequently involves not just attentional selection, but selection for action. Thus, it is important to understand the impact of looming motion on goal-directed action to gain a broader perspective on how stimulus properties bias human behavior. We presented participants wi...
متن کاملGoal Salience Affects Infants’ Goal-Directed Gaze Shifts
Around their first year of life, infants are able to anticipate the goal of others' ongoing actions. For instance, 12-month-olds anticipate the goal of everyday feeding actions and manual actions such as reaching and grasping. However, little is known whether the salience of the goal influences infants' online assessment of others' actions. The aim of the current eye-tracking study was to eluci...
متن کاملInfants show stability of goal-directed imitation.
Previous studies have reported that infants selectively reproduce observed actions and have argued that this selectivity reflects understanding of intentions and goals, or goal-directed imitation. We reasoned that if selective imitation of goal-directed actions reflects understanding of intentions, infants should demonstrate stability across perceptually and causally dissimilar imitation tasks....
