A
major challenge in research on infant vision is that infants
can't tell us what they can see and what they can't. As
a result, vision scientists have had to develop procedures
that depend on an infant's natural reactions or physiological
responses as indicators of their visual abilities. Not surprisingly,
many of these methods are similar to those used to study
the vision of animals.
