| Abstract(in English) | Many research showed that adults evaluate face resembled to their own face more positively than unknown faces. However, it remains unknown how infants behave toward faces resembled to their own face. In the current study, we investigated whether the looking behavior of infants at the age of 10 -13 month toward their own face, another infant’s face and morphed face with direct and averted directions of gaze and head by using the preferential looking paradigm. In experimentⅠ(a two-choice preferential looking paradigm), infants looked longer another infant’s face than their own face and morphed face. In contrast, in experimentⅡ(a four-choice preferential looking paradigm), infants looked longer their own face and another infant’s face than two morphed faces only with direct gaze and head posuture. Our findings showed that 10-13 infants discriminated more sensitively between another infant’s face and other faces and preferred another infant’s face to their own face and a face resembled to their own face. Our study also indicated that enough exposure time and frequency might allow infants to discriminate their own face and a face resembled to their own face only with direct gaze. |
