This document discusses studies of infant minds and consciousness. It explains that obtaining data from infants has been difficult due to a lack of language, but scientists have found other methods. Some studies have found that infants have superior empathy, imagination, and sometimes intelligence compared to adults. Infants absorb all stimuli like a sponge as they lack the mental filters developed with age and experience that adults use to process information and emotions. Understanding these differences can help adults better relate to infants and see that their consciousness is simply different rather than less developed.
