ABSTRACT
Since the 1970s, a variety of studies of infant chromatic discriminations and related topics have been carried out (reviewed by Brown, 1990; Teller & Bornstein, 1987). Most of the studies of chromatic discrimination have been motivated by classical trichromatic color theory, and the paradigms used have been guided by an interest in probing the functional maturity of the very earliest stage of chromatic processing in the visual system, that is, the photoreceptors.
