    This study examined the effect of maternal emotional signals on one-year-olds' behavior on the visual cliff test. The visual cliff test is used to assess infants' perception of depth and their willingness to cross an apparent drop. The study found that when mothers signaled encouragement, one-year-olds were more likely to cross the visual cliff, showing that maternal emotional signals can influence one-year-olds' willingness to take perceived risks.
