Far from being ""blank slates"" that passively absorb environmental stimuli, infants are active learners who perceptually engage their environments and extract information from them before language is available. The ecological approach to perceiving-defined as ""a theory about perceiving by active creatures who look and listen and move around"" was spearheaded by Eleanor and James Gibson in the 1950's and culminated in James Gibson's lastPerception in infantsPerceptual learningInfant psychologyElectronic books.Perception in infants.Perceptual learning.Infant psychology.153.7155.4137Gibson Eleanor Jack996098Pick Anne D893130MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910453708303321An ecological approach to perceptual learning and development2282743UNINA
