The N170 event-related potential differentiates congruent and incongruent gaze responses in gaze leading [PDF]
, 2020 To facilitate social interactions, humans need to process the responses that other people make to their actions, including eye movements that could establish joint attention.

Joint engagement and early language abilities in young children with Down syndrome
Frontiers in Psychology, 2023 IntroductionEarly social strengths likely serve as a foundation for language acquisition for young children with Down syndrome (DS). One way to characterize early social skills is to examine a child’s engagement with a caregiver around an object of ...

The use of joint attention in the naturalistic setting in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder [PDF]
, 2015 This study investigates the deficits in the quantity and quality of joint attention in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). To obtain a holistic measure of joint attention, the following four aspects were considered: a) the quantity of ...

Humans Can’t Resist Robot Eyes – Reflexive Cueing With Pseudo-Social Stimuli
Frontiers in Robotics and AI, 2022 Joint attention is a key mechanism for humans to coordinate their social behavior. Whether and how this mechanism can benefit the interaction with pseudo-social partners such as robots is not well understood.

Pragmatically Framed Cross-Situational Noun Learning Using Computational Reinforcement Models
Frontiers in Psychology, 2018 Cross-situational learning and social pragmatic theories are prominent mechanisms for learning word meanings (i.e., word-object pairs). In this paper, the role of reinforcement is investigated for early word-learning by an artificial agent.

Joint attention and language evolution [PDF]
Connection Science, 2008 This study investigates how more advanced joint attentional mechanisms, rather than only shared attention between two agents and an object, can be implemented and how they influence the results of language games played by these agents. We present computer simulations with language games showing that adding constructs that mimic the three stages of ...
