Multisensory processes are fundamental in scaffolding perception, cognition, learning, and
behavior. How and when stimuli from different sensory modalities are integrated rather than …

Multisensory integration (MSI) occurs in a variety of brain areas, spanning cortical and
subcortical regions. In traditional studies on sensory processing, the sensory cortices have …

Infants growing up in bilingual environments succeed at learning two languages. What
adaptive processes enable them to master the more complex nature of bilingual input? One …

Perceptual narrowing reflects the effects of early experience and contributes in key ways to
perceptual and cognitive development. Previous studies have found that unisensory …

Infants increasingly attend to the mouths of others during the latter half of the first postnatal
year, and individual differences in selective attention to talking mouths during infancy predict …

Previous studies have found that infants shift their attention from the eyes to the mouth of a
talker when they enter the canonical babbling phase after 6 months of age. Here, we …

To investigate the developmental emergence of the perception of the multisensory
coherence of native and non-native audiovisual fluent speech, we tested 4-, 8-to 10-, and 12 …

We investigated whether attention to a talker's eyes in 12 month-old infants is related to their
communication and social abilities. We measured infant attention to a talker's eyes and …

The present study examined when and how the ability to cross-modally match audio-visual
fluent speech develops in 4.5-, 6-and 12-month-old German-learning infants. In Experiment …

This paper quantifies the extent to which infants can perceive audio–visual congruence for
speech information and assesses whether this ability changes with native language …
