  • Title: Concordance of visual and manipulative responses to novel and familiar stimuli: a reply to Rubenstein (1974).
    Author: Schaffer HR.
    Journal: Child Dev; 1975 Mar; 46(1):290-1. PubMed ID: 1132278.
    Abstract:
    Rubenstein's failure to find evidence for the previously suggested lack of concordance between visual and manipulative responses to novel and familiar stimuli in 6-month-old infants is discussed. It is shown that a lack of concordance is not specific to the use of 1 measure of manipulative behavior, and other possible explanations for the discrepancy in findings are examined. A 2-stage development of responsiveness to familiarity-novelty in infancy remains the most plausible account.
