The infant's face diet: Data on 3-month-old infant-perspective experience with faces video-recorded in their typical, daily environment

This dataset represents face experience coded frame-by-frame from nearly 170 hours of infant-perspective head-mounted-camera video, recorded during their daily life by 40 3-month-old infants. It includes information about the identity of the face (e.g., caregiver, relative), length of time the face was in the field of view, location in which the face occurred, and descriptions of the situation in which the infant experienced the face. Demographic information (e.g., age, gender) about the infants who recorded the videos is also provided. For elaboration on data collection methodology, interpretation, analysis, and discussion of early face experience captured by this dataset, please see our paper These are the people in your neighbourhood: Consistency and persistence in infants' exposure to caregivers', relatives', and strangers’ faces across contexts [1].
