Infant Locomotion

Caption

To study the relationship between visual proprioception and the development of wariness of heights in infants, Dahl and colleagues placed infants in a powered mobility device (upper left) and a moving room (upper right). They tested their wariness of heights using the crossing paradigm (study 1, lower left) and lowering paradigm (study 2, lower right).
