  1. Toddlers Using Tablets: They Engage, Play, and Learn.Mary L. Courage, Lynn M. Frizzell, Colin S. Walsh & Megan Smith - 2021 - Frontiers in Psychology 12.
    Although very young children have unprecedented access to touchscreen devices, there is limited research on how successfully they operate these devices for play and learning. For infants and toddlers, whose cognitive, fine motor, and executive functions are immature, several basic questions are significant: Can they operate a tablet purposefully to achieve a goal? Can they acquire operating skills and learn new information from commercially available apps? Do individual differences in executive functioning predict success in using and learning from the apps?

  • Face-to-face contact during infancy: How the development of gaze to faces feeds into infants’ vocabulary outcomes.Zsofia Belteki, Carlijn van den Boomen & Caroline Junge - 2022 - Frontiers in Psychology 13.
    Infants acquire their first words through interactions with social partners. In the first year of life, infants receive a high frequency of visual and auditory input from faces, making faces a potential strong social cue in facilitating word-to-world mappings. In this position paper, we review how and when infant gaze to faces is likely to support their subsequent vocabulary outcomes. We assess the relevance of infant gaze to faces selectively, in three domains: infant gaze to different features within a face (...)

  • Touchscreens for Whom? Working Memory and Age Moderate the Impact of Contingency on Toddlers' Transfer From Video.Koeun Choi, Heather L. Kirkorian & Tiffany A. Pempek - 2021 - Frontiers in Psychology 12.
    Toddlers exhibit poor transfer between video and real-world contexts. Contingently responsive video such as that found in touchscreen apps appears to assist transfer for some toddlers but not others. This study investigated the extent to which toddlers' working memory moderates the impact of contingency on toddler's transfer of learning from video. Toddlers watched a hiding event on either contingent video that advanced only after touch input or non-contingent video that proceeded automatically. Toddlers then searched for a corresponding object on a (...)
