The original version of this Article contained errors.


In the title of the paper, the word “receive” was incorrectly given as “gain”.


In addition, in the Abstract,


“Cerebral lateralisation of function is common characteristic across vertebrate species and is positively associated with fitness of the organism, in humans we hypothesise that it is associated with cognitive fitness.”


now reads:

In the Discussion,


“In term of observations, a marked difference in the rate of looking at faces vs looking at non-faces in all groups was found supporting previous literature showing that infants have a preference for looking at faces over other objects49,50,51”.


now reads:

Finally, in the Methods section, subsection Measures,


“The Mullen Scales of Early Learning (MSEL) were assessed in the infants55.”


now reads:


“The Mullen Scales of Early Learning (MSEL) were assessed in the infants at 14 months55.”
