abstract: |-
  Schlesinger (in press) recently proposed a model of
  eye movements as a tool for investigating infants’
  visual expectations. In the present study, this gaze-direction
  model was evaluated by (a) generating a set
  of predictions concerning how infants distribute their
  attention during possible and impossible events, and
  (b) testing these predictions in a replication of
  Baillargeon’s "car study" (1986; Baillargeon &
  DeVos, 1991). We find that the model successfully
  predicts general features of infants’ gaze direction,
  but not specific differences obtained during the
  possible and impossible events. The implications of
  these results for infant cognition research and theory
  are discussed.
