Table 1.
The results of Experiment 2 in two parts. Part 1 shows infants’ first touches and first offers across both conditions. Part 2 shows the composite coding (combining touches and offers) across both conditions. This creates 4 mutually exclusive categories, shown below.
| Part 1 – Separate Responses | 18% Condition (Sampling Violation) | 82% Condition (No Sampling Violation) | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| First Touch | First Offer | First Touch | First Offer | |
| Target | 13 | 14 | 5 | 9 |
| Alternate | 10 | 10 | 14 | 13 |
| Both | 1 | 0 | 5 | 2 |
| Part 2 – Combined Responses1 | 18% Condition (Sampling Violation) | 82% Condition (No Sampling Violation) |
|
| ||
| Category 1: Touch and Offer Target | 14 | 5 |
| Category 2: Touch and Offer Alternate | 10 | 13 |
| Category 3: Touch Alternate and Switch to Offer Target | 0 | 4 |
| Category 4: Touch and Offer Both | 0 | 2 |

Four children (1 in the 18% condition and 3 in the 82% condition) who first touched both objects together but then offered only one were coded as category 1 or 2.
