Design an experiment to determine if 1-month-old infants can see a stationary object. Useone of the “looking” measures (or a variant), described in your Infancy Text or otherreadings for this course ( e.g., visual preference method; infant-control habituation andrecovery method; novelty preference method). Be sure to answer each part fully.
A) Describe your stimuliB) Describe your methodC) What is your DV (measure) -be specificD) Hypothesized resultsE) Explain how your hypothesized results will show that infants can see the object.
Don’t worry- you are not expected to have a perfect answer! The purpose of thisassignment is for you to think deeply about how you would ask a question about whatinfants can and cannot perceive-and do so in a way that you can be certain of the answeryou get. Later in the course you will learn about how researchers typically structure anexperiment to ask this question.
