Two experiments were carried out to demonstrate the existence of a global precedence effect in newborns, as it was found in adults and in 3-4 month old infants. The results demonstrated that, when the two levels of visual information are equally discriminable, newborns showed an asymmetric interference between the two levels. This finding provides evidence for a processing dominance of global over local information.

Abstract
Two experiments were carried out to demonstrate the existence of a global precedence effect in newborns, as it was found in adults and in 3-4 month old infants. The results demonstrated that, when the two levels of visual information are equally discriminable, newborns showed an asymmetric interference between the two levels. This finding provides evidence for a processing dominance of global over local information.
