What does a child's ability to look where another is looking tell
us about his or her early cognitive development? What does this
ability--or lack thereof--tell us about a child's language
development, understanding of other's intentions, and the emergence
of autism? This volume assembles several years of research on the
processing of gaze information and its relationship to early
social-cognitive development in infants spanning many age groups.
"Gaze-Following "examines how humans and non-human primates use
another individual's direction of gaze to learn about the world
around them.
The chapters throughout this volume address development in areas
including joint attention, early non-verbal social interactions,
language development, and theory of mind understanding. Offering
novel insights regarding the significance of gaze-following, the
editors present research from a neurological and a behavioral
perspective, and compare children with and without pervasive
developmental disorders.
Scholars in the areas of cognitive development specifically, and
developmental science more broadly, as well as clinical
psychologists will be interested in the intriguing research
presented in this volume.
