Saccadic Reaction Times

Adults and infants as young as 4 months old follow pointing gestures. Although adults are shown to orient faster to index-finger pointing compared to other hand shapes, it is not known whether hand shapes influence infants' following of pointing. In this study, we used a spatial cueing paradigm on an eye tracker to investigate whether and to what extent adults and 12-month-old infants orient their attention in the direction of pointing gestures with different hand shapes: index finger, whole hand, and pinky finger. Results revealed that adults showed a cueing effect, that is, shorter saccadic reaction times (SRTs) to congruent compared to incongruent targets, for all hand shapes. However, they did not show a larger cueing effect triggered by the index finger. This contradicts previous findings and is discussed with respect to the differences in methodology. Infants showed a cueing effect only for the whole hand but not for the index finger or the pinky finger. Infants predominantly point with the whole hand prior to 12 months. The current results thus suggest that infants' perception of pointing gestures may be linked to their own production of pointing gestures. Infants may show a cueing effect by the conventional index-finger pointing shape later than their first year, possibly when they start to point predominantly with their index finger.

Stereotype Activation

According to social cognition textbooks, stereotypes are activated automatically if appropriate categorical cues are processed. Although many studies have tested effects of activated stereotypes on behavior, few have tested the process of stereotype activation. Blair and Banaji (1996) demonstrated that subjects were faster to categorize first names as male or female if those were preceded by gender congruent attribute primes. The same, albeit smaller, effects emerged in a semantic priming design ruling out response priming by Banaji and Hardin (1996) . We sought to replicate these important effects. Mirroring Blair and Banaji (1996) we found strong priming effects as long as response priming was possible. However, unlike Banaji and Hardin (1996) , we did not find any evidence for automatic stereotype activation, when response priming was ruled out. Our findings suggest that automatic stereotype activation is not a reliable and global phenomenon but is restricted to more specific conditions.
