Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
Auditory preferences are actually mentioned in the textbook as one of the indicators of an infant's ability to process information. The other three options - habituation/dishabituation, visual preference, and cross-modal transfer - are all identified in the textbook as signs that the infant is processing information in some way.
