TL;DR
Repetition produced significant fixation decrement which was reliably greater for the simple than for the complex stimulus, and in all instances significant response recovery occurred with stimulus change.
Abstract
Two groups of 3-1/2 month-olds each received two sessions of successive exposure to variable and repeated stimuli. Complexity of the repeated stimulus differed between groups and across sessions. Repetition produced significant fixation decrement which was reliably greater for the simple than for the complex stimulus. In all instances significant response recovery occurred with stimulus change.
