    "title": "Active Vision in the Perception of Actions: An Eye Tracking Study in Naturalistic\nContexts",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "Infants’ ability to attend actively and selectively to naturalistic\nstimuli is critical to early learning. Most studies on infant visual\nattention use screen-based paradigms wherein infants view\nstimuli on computer screens. Little is known about how infants\nobserve others’ activities in everyday contexts. Using head-\nmounted eye-tracking, this study examined how infants\ndistributed attention when observing their parents perform an\neveryday task – making peanut-butter and jelly sandwiches –\nin a home-like environment. Infant observers attended to\nparents’ activities less than adult observers in the same\nsituation. However, when infants were engaged in action\nobservation, their gaze patterns were distributed on task-\nrelevant objects similarly to adult observers, suggesting they\nactively obtained rich visual input in this free-viewing\nsituation. Moreover, infant-parent dyads coordinated visual\nattention during the food preparation task in similar ways as\nobserved in other everyday tasks, such as toy play, suggesting\nsensorimotor processes play a critical role in coordinated\nattention.",
