Description: We examined gaze behavior with eye-tracking in a total of 61 hearing infants and children. One group was exposed to American Sign Language from birth by virtue of having deaf parents and the comparison group was raised in monolingual English speaking homes. We addressed competing hypotheses, put forth by recent studies, about how perceptual gaze control may or may not be malleable during infancy. Percent looking for each of the primary AOIs, for Infants and Children, is shown for each Non-Signing and Signing groups, with the highest concentration of gaze in the darkest shaded AOIs. Results confirmed robust group differences in gaze behavior for signed stories.
