Neural mechanisms of infant learning: differences in frontal theta activity during object exploration modulate subsequent object recognition

Investigating learning mechanisms in infancy relies largely on behavioural measures like visual attention, which often fail to predict whether stimuli would be encoded successfully. This study explored EEG activity in the theta frequency band, previously shown to predict successful learning in adult...
