Chapter 2 The Role of Motion in Infants' Perception of Occlusion

摘要: We describe how motion of either the infant or objects in world makes it possible for infants to solve a number tasks involving occlusion. The influence is seen at different levels visual processing. First, there evidence that young exploit lawful transformations retinal projection perceive surface boundaries, relative depth surfaces boundary, figure-ground relations, and invariant shape an object being occluded. Second, use common motion, three-dimensional space, visible parts partially occluded as information unity object. In contrast early development these abilities, recent work suggests not until end first year life are able integrate successive partial views into unified representation.
