Study Summary

This trial is looking at the benefits of reading books to infants. It will investigate whether infant and parent visual attentional coupling during shared book reading predicts later infant selective attention and infant and parent neural coupling.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for typically developing infants aged between 5.5 and 12.5 months, along with their caregivers aged 18-65 years old. Infants or parents with a history of seizures, neurological or visual deficits, or those born more than two weeks premature cannot participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study investigates the impact of shared book reading on infant development. It examines how attention during reading affects infant learning and parent-infant neural coupling using eye-tracking and EEG frequency tagging techniques.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
There are no direct side effects mentioned for this intervention as it involves normal activities like book reading; however, participation includes laboratory visits where monitoring equipment will be used.
