“…One of the most robust findings regarding infant emotion processing is that by 7 months of age infants prefer to look at a fearful face rather than a happy face [de Haan, Belsky, Reid, Volein & Johnson, 2004;Kotsoni, de Haan & Johnson, 2001;Ludemann & Nelson, 1988;Nelson & Dolgin, 1985;Peltola, Leppänen, Maki & Hietanen, 2009].
