Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Both A (preferential-looking technique) and B (habituation-dishabituation technique) are commonly used methods of studying infant perception. Infants are able to distinguish between different stimuli and respond accordingly even before they develop language skills. These methods rely on measuring changes in attention or behavior in response to different stimuli, and are effective in revealing what infants can perceive and prefer at different stages of development.
