Gaze Control: A Developmental Perspective
نویسندگان
چکیده
The chapter by Sandini et al. provides good examples of how the working of biological visual systems can help us to understand the design problems of an engineered system, and vice versa. However, it is important to bear in mind that the organization of a biological system has arisen through processes that are rather different from the design and manufacture of an engineered system. The biological system has to be understood as the end point of an evolutionary and a developmental process.

Gaze following: why (not) learn it?
We propose a computational model of the emergence of gaze following skills in infant-caregiver interactions. The model is based on the idea that infants learn that monitoring their caregiver's direction of gaze allows them to predict the locations of interesting objects or events in their environment (Moore & Corkum, 1994). Elaborating on this theory, we demonstrate that a specific Basic Set of...
متن کاملDevelopment of online use of theory of mind during adolescence: An eye-tracking study.
We investigated the development of theory of mind use through eye-tracking in children (9-13years old, n=14), adolescents (14-17.9years old, n=28), and adults (19-29years old, n=23). Participants performed a computerized task in which a director instructed them to move objects placed on a set of shelves. Some of the objects were blocked off from the director's point of view; therefore, particip...
متن کاملSkin conductance responses to another person's gaze in children with autism.
The effects of another person's gaze on physiological arousal were investigated by measuring skin conductance responses (SCR). Twelve able children with autism and 12 control children were shown face stimuli with straight gaze (eye contact) or averted gaze on a computer monitor. In children with autism, the responses to straight gaze were stronger than responses to averted gaze, whereas there w...
متن کاملBrief report: young adults with autism spectrum disorder show normal attention to eye-gaze information-evidence from a new change blindness paradigm.
Other people's eye-gaze is a powerful social stimulus that captures and directs visual attention. There is evidence that this is not the case for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), although less is known about attention to eye-gaze in adults. We investigated whether young adults would detect a change to the direction of eye-gaze in another's face more efficiently than a control chang...
متن کاملRobust coupling of body movement and gaze in young infants.
In the first few months after birth, rapid bursts of body movement precede and possibly facilitate shifts of gaze during free looking, with potential consequences for perception and cognition. Here we report that the characteristic features of movement-gaze coupling found during free looking are preserved when attention is perturbed by a salient change in the visual environment. Twenty-four 3-m...
