What are the three goals for the familiarization phase in the head-turn preference paradigm?
2. Train the baby to expect sounds coming from the left and right speaker
3. Tightly lock together the head-turn behavior to the infant’s auditory attention (flashing a light in the location of the speaker before each sound, and by making sure that sounds during the familiarization phase are played only for as long as the baby looks in
the direction of the sound)
