Abstract
⺠We studied infants' ability to form associations between labels and paths of motion. ⺠We tested if English lexical stress would bias infants' associative learning. ⺠Verb- or noun-like stress labels were paired with an object performing path actions. ⺠Only infants in the verb-like stress condition learned the mapping. ⺠Sixteen-month-olds can use lexical stress to guide label-referent associations.
