Perception and 24-hour retention of feature relations in infancy.

Abstract

The study examined whether the perception and retention of feature relations, thought to be critical for object recognition in adults, are evident early in infancy. Three-month-olds' 24-hr retention was disrupted when correlated features were recombined, indicating that they not only encode feature relations but also remember them for substantial periods of time. However, relations involving the relative location of features within objects were forgotten earlier than those that differentiated between objects: Infants exhibited adultlike «illusory conjunctions» by generalizing to a figure-ground color reversal after a delay when they were still discriminating between-objects recombinations
