Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) It has been explored whether infants can form association between different sensory information such as vision and olfaction. For example, 4-month-old infants can learn arbitrary association between familiar odor and object (Fernandez & Bahrick, 1994). In the current study, infants (5-8 month olds) learned a scented toy with unfamiliar odor (anise) and an unscented toy for two weeks. Then two pictures of the toys were presented on computer monitor. As the result, the infants looked the picture of the scented toy longer than the one of the unscented toy when the odor was presented. Thus the infants can form the arbitrary association between visual and olfactory information.
