Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we applied the gaze-contingency task, which we have been using to evaluate the development of a sense of agency (Miyazaki et al., 2014), to examine whether 8-month-olds can perform their gaze control according to social context through three experiments. Specifically, we showed an animation in which social interactions (misdeeds) were observed, and in a context in which the infants’ gaze control would punish the villain character, they showed a gaze control that punishes the villain. It turns out, however, that when the gaze control is in a context where the villain character cannot be intimidated, such gaze control was disappeared.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究で得られた成果には大きく2つの意義がある。一つ目は視線随伴パラダイムにおける視線の操作が、与えられた文脈に応じて適応的に変化したことである。二つ目は、悪役に対して乳児自らが懲らしめるかのような行動を示したことである。特に二つ目については乳児の向社会性の発達における重大な発見となることが示唆される。
