Learning in Infancy Is Active, Endogenously Motivated, and Depends on the Prefrontal Cortices
<jats:p> A common view of learning in infancy emphasizes the role of incidental sensory experiences from which increasingly abstract statistical regularities are extracted. In this view, infant brains initially support basic sensory and motor functions, followed by maturation of higher-level a...
