Publication Type: Individual Poster Abstract: Background and Aims: It has been widely accepted that Joint Attention is not simply a systemic pattern of behavior, but an insight to another’s mind. Understanding relation between a person and the object of his/her attention has been suggested as one of the critical components of social knowledge that may contribute to the development of joint attention. The present study directly investigated whether infants' an understanding of other person’s “looking at” an object is related to the amount of time they are engaged in the coordinated joint attention at 18moths of age. Methods: Fifty one 18-month-old infants and their mothers participated. To measure the amount of coordinated joint attention between infants and mother, the parent was asked to play with her infant in our observation room as if they were playing at home for 10 minutes. They were provided with a basket of toys which were chosen to encourage their interaction. A trained observer coded each session using the coding scheme from Bakeman and Adamson (Adamson, Bakeman, Russel, & Deckner, 1998). Infants’ comprehension of other's attentional relation was measured using a procedure that was adjusted from Brooks and Meltzoff’s(2002). The experimenter turned their heads toward an object with open (4 times) and closed eyes (4 times) and observed whether the infant turned his/her head to follow the experimenter’s gaze. Infants’ understanding of other person’s attention was measured by comparing frequencies of gaze following in each condition. Key Results: The results showed that infants’ attentional understanding is significantly related to the amount of their coordinated joint attention during the free play situation. In addition, the results showed that infants' understanding of other person's attentional relation is significantly related to the successful shift from the supported joint attention to the coordinated joint attentional states. That is, when the mother was looking at what is attended to by her infant, it is more likely for infants with better understanding of other person’s attention to be engaged in the coordinated joint attention. Conclusions: These results indeed suggest that one of the important individual characteristics of infants that may mediate the development of coordinated joint attention is their ability to understanding of other person’s, even though the causal direction between these two is uncertain.
