We present four experiments with the object-examining procedure that investigated 7-9 and 11 month-olds ability to associate two object faetures that were never presented simultaneously. In each experiment infants were familiarized with a number fo 3D objects thet incorporated different correlations among the features fo those objects and the body of the objects Infants were then tested with object with a novel body thet either possessed both of the parts that were independently correlated with one body during familiarization ro thet were attached to two different bodies during familiarization.The experiments demonstrate that infants as young as 7 months of age are capable of this kind of second-order correlation learning. Furthermore by at least as 7 months of age are capable of this kind of second-order correlation learning. Furhermore by at least 11 months of age infants develop a representation for the object that incorporates both of the features they experienced during training. We suggest that the ability to learn second-order correlations represents a powerful but as yet largely unexplored process for generalization in the first years of life.
