Masks and Visual Preferences in the Newborn

BABYMASK
Start date: November 15, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

What impact can facial masks have on face exploration in the first few weeks of life? No study has yet investigated this. The objective of our study was to evaluate the impact of the mask on the face processing (preferential gaze, visual recognition) of the term infant for familiar (e.g. mother's face) and unfamiliar (stranger's face) faces. This is a prospective study which will take place in Grenoble Maternity Hospital. 200 newborns will be enrolled between 24 hours and 7 days of life during one year. Different pairs of images will be presented on a screen while an experimenter records the infant's gaze. On each trial, the experimenter will judge when the infant is looking at the screen or not and assess when 10 seconds of screen gaze time has been accumulated. The comparisons will be made to determine whether statistically, one face is looked at significantly longer than another.
