Abstract
⺠Infant as young as 18 months can categorize at the animate/inanimate (A/I) level. ⺠Categories are not formed solely based on object parts such as legs and wheels. ⺠Present findings support the top-down hypothesis of conceptual development. ⺠Taxonomic categorization favored over partonomic categorization in infancy.
