Abstract | Examined representation of pictorial exemplars of humans by 3- and 4-month olds. Results demonstrated an asymmetry regarding the exclusivity of categorical representations formed for humans and non-human animals. Categorical representations for humans included exemplar information, whereas categorical representation for non-human animals was based on summary information. Asymmetry did not extend to more basic process of discriminating human versus non-human animals. (Author/KB) |
