Babies--Part II
Preliminary baby-morality test results are in. The TV segmet was just a teaser for a full study to be shown Sunday, I think. I see flaws, although full workup is unknown. Litle babes in arms were shown a puppet show with a peaceful puppet and an aggressive puppet. Then babies were timed as to which puppet they looked at longer. But bad puppet was on the babies' left and good puppet on right. Each of the five babies looked first to their left for a few seconds, and then to their right for a longer period of time. Each time the bad puppet was to their left. So the babies each looked at the good puppet for a longer time than at the bad puppet. Why they stopped looking is unclear, for now. And, besides, what if some babies prefer to look at the dark side? So many question. so hard to tell. And what is the reason for the study? Don't we have a hard enough time trying to determine if adults know right from wrong?
