Adults often make quick assumptions of what the personality of a baby is. First impressions lead us to categorize them as fearful, active or easy to please, and with good reason. For the past fifty years, doctors have been analyzing babies and have come up with evidence that shows that babies begin life with traits that set the stage for how they interact with the world—and how the world reacts to them
New research shows that babies are astute observers of the emotional tenor of adult interactions and censor their own behavior accordingly. Published in the March issue of Developmental Psychology, the study shows that infants who get a glimpse of a stranger involved in an angry exchange with another stranger will then act more tentatively during play.
I chose this topic because I thought it was interesting to get a deeper insight of what goes on in the minds of babies. This topic is related to the class because the scientists have conducted experiments on how babies react to different the different people in the world. This is relevant to the people who want more research on this topic and business who want to provide that information.

Wow that sound slightly nerve-racking but cool I wonder if they will create technology that will learn to process their facial expressions and match that to how they feel about certain people, like the BRF reader.
