“…Children are also often privy to others' conversations, and can accurately interpret such overheard communicative interactions. For example, infants expect a speaker to speak toward another individual rather than toward inanimate objects (Molina, van de Walle, Condry, & Spelke, 2009), use a speaker's gaze to locate her audience (Beier & Spelke, 2012), and look toward listeners in anticipation of their response to others' speech (Thorgrímsson, Fawcett, & Liszkowski, 2015). Infants also seem to appreciate that speech provides information, expecting a listener to respond appropriately to speech, but not to non-speech vocalizations (e.g., a cough; Martin, Onishi, & Vouloumanos, 2012; see also Cheung, Xiao, & Lai, 2012;Song, Onishi, Baillargeon, & Fisher, 2008;Vouloumanos, Martin, & Onishi, 2014;Vouloumanos, Onishi, & Pogue, 2012).…”
