Relationships Between Assessments of Habituation and Cognitive Performance in the Early Years of Life

Relationships between measures of habituation and performance on cognitive tasks at 27 and 39 months of age and between these and previously reported assessments (at 15 months and early infancy) were examined for 29 children. Some stability of habituation rate is evidenced, but results do not offer...

Description
Summary:Relationships between measures of habituation and performance on cognitive tasks at 27 and 39 months of age and between these and previously reported assessments (at 15 months and early infancy) were examined for 29 children. Some stability of habituation rate is evidenced, but results do not offer strong support for the notion that faster habituators are somewhat more advanced cognitively than their slower counterparts.
