  text: This research investigated infants’ online perception of give-me gestures
    during observation of a social interaction. In the first experiment, goal-directed
    eye movements of 12-month-olds were recorded as they observed a give-and-take
    interaction in which an object is passed from one individual to another. Infants’
    gaze shifts from the passing hand to the receiving hand were significantly faster
    when the receiving hand formed a give-me gesture relative to when it was presented
    as an inverted hand shape. Experiment 2 revealed that infants’ goal-directed gaze
    shifts were not based on different affordances of the two receiving hands. Two
    additional control experiments further demonstrated that differences in infants’
    online gaze behavior were not mediated by an attentional preference for the give-me
    gesture. Together, our findings provide evidence that properties of social action
    goals influence infants’ online gaze during action observation. The current studies
    demonstrate that infants have expectations about well-formed object transfer actions
    between social agents. We suggest that 12-month-olds are sensitive to social goals
    within the context of give-and-take interactions while observing from a third-party
    perspective.
