| Actions: | Transcribed as Text Episodes |
| Episode A: at 00:03 |
Objects: 3 blocks; 3 cups; a starry ball; a roller (a rod with two disks mounted) and 2 more rods between cups and ball Mom: [sets Peggy on the floor, near objects; exits] Peggy: [separates blocks from rest of objects] [after mouthing the middle sized cup, she hits it into the remainder; the ball, the long rod and the roller scatter,and she watches them roll] |
| Episode B: at 00:22 |
[after knocking the middle rod with the cup, she picks it up in RH and throws it over the other objects, watches till it stops rolling] [Noticing the short rod, Peggy lifts it to her mouth then throws it beyond the other objects. It does not roll.] [with her hand landing on the large cup, Peggy draws it close, holds with both hands (closed face up), picks up RH the small cup (open face up) and brings it beside the large cup. [after looking at the ball, she looks at the small cup, bumps it on the large cup, mouths it, and drops it beyond the other objects] [with her RH on the convex large cup, Peggy looks at the middle and small cups, moves the large cup to the middle, switches hands, and lifting the middle cup RH, she hits a block twice then; while it rolls off, circularly, beyond her feet, she watches, lifts the block and drops it behind herself] |
| Episode C: at 01:14 |
[after surveying nearest objects, Peggy takes the long rod to reach for the ball, drops it when not long enough; then tries an ineffective toss] [with the large cup in RH, she crawls toward the ball and reaches/ hits out with the large cup, dropping the cup and knocking the ball away] [with the large rod at hand RH, Peggy crawls toward the ball; missing it, she releases the rod and captures the ball in her LH] [Looking left, then right at the large cup, she flicks the ball to the cup, pushing it a bit further to her right] [when tossing the large rod has no marked effect she focuses on the ball-cup object pair, crawls to them] [one hand on each, she mouths the ball, hits it against the cup, tries but fails to lift the cup, knocks it away, brings two hands to the ball and looks back to the cup, the ball, mouths the ball] [with the ball at mouth 4 seconds, Peggy pushes the ball forward; it stops at the roller. She crawls to them] |
| Episode D: at 02:31 |
[sweeping RH the roller right flings the ball several feet across the floor, observing the ball, Peggy then brings one roller disk to mouth, examines it] [In front, eyes on, hands on, changed orientations, swinging when released, it rolls] [Starting after the roller, Peggy is distracted by the small rod, mouths it; dropped once with no effect, on a second drop it rolls away.] [Viewing the toys’ spread, she heads for the roller and, on the way, mouths the small rod then throws it beyond the roller] |
| Episode E: at 04:05 |
[Turned away, Peggy’s mouthing and manipulation of the roller continue; its size makes it hard to throw] [when done with the roller, she turns again to the small rod and crawls toward it] |
| Episode F:04:43 at |
Bob: I think she’s attracted to the clicking noise of the tape recorder…. and my voice, that’s saying, “You’re being there.” That’s fine. I think I’m just going to shut up from now on. [End 04:52 ] |

| AI Summary: | as Contents List – Peggy is placed on the floor near assorted objects: three blocks, three cups (large/middle/small), a starry ball, a roller (rod with two disks), and two additional rods. – She separates the blocks, mouths the middle cup, then uses it to hit other objects, watching the ball, long rod, and roller scatter and roll. – She throws the middle rod so it rolls, then throws the short rod, which does not roll. – She explores the cups: compares large and small cups, mouths the small cup, bumps it against the large cup, then drops it away. – Using the middle cup, she hits a block, watches it roll away, retrieves it, and drops it behind herself. – She attempts to reach the ball with the long rod (too short), then crawls with the large cup to hit the ball, later switching to the large rod but finally secures the ball by hand. – She focuses on the ball and large cup as a pair: mouths the ball, taps it against the cup, tries and fails to lift the large cup, and continues alternating attention between them. – With the ball at her mouth, she pushes it until it meets the roller; sweeping the roller flings the ball far, after which she inspects and mouths a roller disk and explores its rolling behavior. – Distracted by the small rod, she mouths and drops it; on a second drop it rolls away; later she throws it beyond the roller and continues manipulating the roller despite its size. – Bob comments that Peggy seems attracted to the tape recorder’s clicking and his voice, then decides to remain silent. |
| AI Narrative: | At 36 weeks, Peggy is placed on the floor near a small set of toys: three blocks, three cups of different sizes, a star-patterned ball, a roller made of a rod with two disks, and a couple of additional rods. She begins by separating the blocks from the other objects and explores the middle-sized cup by mouthing it, then uses it to nudge the rest. The movement sends the ball, a long rod, and the roller scattering, and she watches them roll away. Noticing a middle rod, she picks it up and throws it; it rolls until it stops. She then lifts a shorter rod to her mouth and tosses it as well, but this one does not roll. Peggy shifts attention to the cups. She draws the large, convex cup closer with both hands, then picks up the small cup and holds it beside the large one. After glancing at the ball, she returns her gaze to the small cup, bumps it against the large cup, mouths it, and drops it beyond the other objects. With a hand still resting on the large cup, she looks at the middle and small cups, moves the large cup nearer, switches hands, lifts the middle cup, and taps a nearby block. As the cup rolls away in a circular path, she watches, retrieves the block and drops it behind herself. She next attempts to use tools to reach the ball. Peggy takes the long rod and tries to extend her reach, but when it proves too short she drops it and makes an ineffective toss. Holding the large cup, she crawls toward the ball and tries to reach it by striking with the cup; the cup drops and knocks the ball away. With the large rod at hand, she crawls again, misses the ball, releases the rod, and captures the ball with her other hand. She seems to organize around the ball and large cup as a pair, flicking the ball toward the cup and crawling to both. At close range, one hand on the cup and one on the ball, she mouths the ball and taps it against the cup. She tries to lift the cup but cannot, knocks it aside, then returns both hands to the ball, alternating glances between the two. With the ball at her mouth for several seconds, she pushes it forward; it comes to rest at the roller. Reaching them, she sweeps the roller to the side, which unexpectedly flings the ball several feet across the floor. She then brings one of the roller’s disks to her mouth and examines it, rotates and releases the roller, and watches it roll. Her attention shifts to the small rod again. After mouthing it, she drops it once without effect; on a second drop it rolls away, and she pursues it. Surveying the spread of toys, she heads back toward the roller, pausing to mouth the small rod and throw it beyond the roller. She continues manipulating the roller, though its size makes it difficult to throw. When finished, she turns again to the small rod and crawls toward it. An offscreen adult briefly comments on background noises and then falls silent as Peggy continues her exploration. |
