Understanding relation between a person and the object of his/her attention may be a critical component of social knowledge that contributes to social development. The present study directly investigated whether infants' comprehension of other person's attentional relation contribute to the development of coordinated joint attention. Fifty one 18-month-old infants participated. Their attentional states were coded using Adamson et el(1998)'s coding system in the context of their free play with their mothers and their comprehension of other's attentional relation was measured using selective gaze following procedure developed by Brooks and Meltzoff(2002). The results showed that infants attentional understanding is significantly related to the relative amount of their coordinated joint attention during the free play situation. In addition, the results showed that infants' understanding of other person's attentional relation is significantly related to the successful shift from supported to coordinated joint attentional states. Our results indicate one of the important individual characteristics of infants that mediates the development of coordinated joint attention during infancy.
