Abstract

Highlights: [•] This study reports the first data from a pseudoisochromatic plate test modified for infants. [•] 95% of infants completed the test, with all detecting the plate representing a blue/yellow confusion axis. [•] Most older (16–23 mo) but not younger babies could detect the plate representing a red/green axis. [•] The failure rate among male infants was significantly higher than that for females. [•] The test shows good validity in both color-normal and color-deficient adults. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
