expressions (yet we dont know for sure if babies are actually feeling this)
cognitive growth in infants - correct answer-•From sensory to representational
•Increasing flexibility of responses
•Increasing ability to act on the environment in controlled ways
•Increasing ability to "experiment" on the environment
correlational vs experimental studies - correct answer-experimental= manipulation of
variables
define operational definition - correct answer-The directly observable behavior(s)That are
hypothesized to measure the construct
describe 9 month revolution, secondary intersubjectivity - correct answer-Pointing•Following
eye gaze•Intentions
with eye gaze following, babies start to understand contention
theyre goal is to do what you do

engage in behaviors that bring people to them

during infancy, childhood, and adolescence result in expectations (mental representations or
