During social interactions, people's eyes convey a wealth of information about their direction
of attention and their emotional and mental states. This review aims to provide a …

There is a continuing debate in developmental neuroscience about the importance of activity-
dependent processes. The relatively delayed rate of development of the human brain …

The coordination of visual attention among social partners is central to many components of
human behavior and human development. Previous research has focused on one pathway …

Making eye contact is the most powerful mode of establishing a communicative link between
humans. During their first year of life, infants learn rapidly that the looking behaviors of …

Human development takes place in a social context. Two pervasive sources of social
information are faces and hands. Here, we provide the first report of the visual frequency of …

Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 4th Edition, is a revised and updated edition of the
landmark text focusing on the development of brain and behaviour during infancy …

Eyes and gaze are very important stimuli for human social interactions. Recent studies
suggest that impairments in recognizing face identity, facial emotions or in inferring attention …

We examined the ontogeny of gaze following by testing infants at 9, 10 and 11 months of
age. Infants (N= 96) watched as an adult turned her head toward a target with either open or …

We propose that humans are adapted to transfer knowledge to, and receive knowledge
from, conspecifics by teaching. This adaptation, which we call'pedagogy', involves the …

Cognitive neuroscientists often study social cognition by using simple but socially relevant
stimuli, such as schematic faces or images of other people. Whilst this research is valuable …
