- What is biological motion?: Definition, stimuli and paradigms (2012, background): “…that sensitivity to the invariants in foot motion exists in non-human species (Vallortigara and Regolin, 2006) and that it might be present in human neonates prior to individual experience (Bardi, Regolin, and Simion, 2011; Simion, Regolin, and Bulf, 2008) points to an evolutionarily old origin.”
- Two-year-olds with autism orient to nonsocial contingencies rather than biological motion (2009, background): “(1) getting the child’s attention, (2) playing peek-a-boo (‘I can’t see you’), (3) playing with a teddy bear, (4) playing pat-a-cake, and (5) enacting a feeding routine.”
- Toward a Mental Systems Approach to Human Relationships with Wildlife: The Role of Emotional Dispositions (2012, background): “Experiments with newborn infants have revealed an innate attraction to biological movement ( Simion, Regolin, & Bulf, 2008 ).”
- Why Do We Like or Dislike Animals? (2009, background): “Simion, Regolin, and Bulf (2008 ) found that two days old babies preferred to look at biological motion above non-biological motion.”
- Skill and experience impact neural activity during global and local biological motion processing. (2023, background): “Furthermore, younger infants prefer looking at PLDs that are non-biologically specific, developing a preference for human displays later in development (Bidet-Ildei et al., 2014; Fox and McDaniel, 1982; Simion et al., 2008).”
- Skilled Performers Show Right Parietal Lateralization during Anticipation of Volleyball Attacks (2023, background): “For instance, when observing point light displays, newborn infants do not show a preference for coherent human walkers compared to spatially scrambled walkers; yet, with development, these individuals are better at recognizing coherent walking displays [3,4].”
