摘要: There is some controversy concerning whether or not the visual abilities of newborn are mediated entirely through subcortical pathways cortex functioning at birth. A critical test cortical discrimination orientation: orientation-selective neurons found in but parts system. An experiment described which infants were habituated to a square-wave grating oriented 45 degrees from vertical. After habituation, significant preferences for novel, mirror-image, found, result argues degree
