In this article, we review recent evidence of infants' early competence in perceiving and interpreting the actions of others. We present a theoretical model that decomposes the timeline of action perception into a series of distinct processes that occur in a particular order. Once an agent is detected, covert attention can be allocated to the future state of the agent (priming), which may lead to overt gaze shifts that predict goals (prediction). Once these goals are achieved, the consequence of the agents' actions and the manner in which the actions were performed can be evaluated (evaluation). We propose that all of these processes have unique requirements, both in terms of timing and cognitive resources. To understand more fully the rich social world of infants, we need to pay more attention to the temporal structure of social perception and ask what information is available to infants and how this changes over time.

婴儿行动知觉的微观结构：分解社会信息处理的时间结构。

在本文中，我们回顾了婴儿感知和解释他人行为的早期能力的最新证据。我们提出了一种理论模型，该模型将动作感知的时间轴分解为以特定顺序发生的一系列不同的过程。一旦检测到代理，便可以将秘密注意力分配给代理的未来状态（启动），这可能导致可预测目标（预测）的明显注视变化。一旦实现了这些目标，就可以评估（评估）代理人行为的结果和行为的执行方式。我们建议所有这些过程在时间安排和认知资源方面都具有独特的要求。为了更全面地了解婴儿的丰富社会世界，
