In a sequence of designed studies, the authors document infants' abilities to extract the relevant attribute from complex arrays of colour, shape and texture. The evidence indicates that the infant's discrimination is based on abstracting the dimensions of the array, rather than learning to respond to a particular example. Moreover, the process of learning takes the form of hypothesis-testing and hence implies some type of internal mediation.
