Why are babies referred to as Universalists?
Babies are born “language universalists,” with no known propensity for one language or another, explains Kuhl.
Can babies differentiate races?
When babies are five months old, they can distinguish among faces of all races equally well. Past studies show they can, for instance, match a happy sound with many kinds of happy faces with equal ease.
At what age is an infant able to distinguish male from female faces and discriminate between ethnic groups quizlet?
Infants can distinguish between male and female faces immediately after birth. Infants cannot discriminate between faces of different ethnic groups until one year of age. Infants match voices to faces before a preference is shown for the mother's face.
At what age can babies only discriminate among those phonemes that are used in the languages?
Neonates are able to discriminate between the different sound levels and duration, different phonemes and constants of all the languages they are exposed to. However when they turn 12 months of age this ability disappears and they are only able to discriminate the phonemes of their native language.
