Children (N = 103, 4-9 years, 59 females, 84% White, c. 2019) completed visual processing, visual feature integration (color, luminance, motion), and visual search tasks. Contrast sensitivity and feature search improved with age similarly for luminance and color-defined targets. Incidental feature integration improved more with age for…

Perone, Sammy; Plebanek, Daniel J.; Lorenz, Megan G.; Spencer, John P.; Samuelson, Larissa K. – Child Development, 2019
Executive function (EF) plays a foundational role in development. A brain-based model of EF development is probed for the experiences that strengthen EF in the dimensional change card sort task in which children sort cards by one rule and then are asked to switch to another. Three-year-olds perseverate on the first rule, failing the task, whereas…

Specifying the Relation between Novel and Known: Input Affects the Acquisition of Novel Color Terms.
Peer reviewedGottfried, Gail M.; Tonks, Stephen J. M. – Child Development, 1996
Four studies investigated how differential input affects preschoolers' abilities to learn novel color words. Found that four- and five-year olds interpreted novel words as shape terms when ostensive information was provided but as color terms when additional information, contrastive or inclusive, was given. Three-year olds generally did not make…

Peer reviewedKelton, Jeffrey J.; And Others – Child Development, 1978
A sample of 176 students in grades 2-12 were tested for visual acuity as a function of minimally resolvable red, yellow, green, and blue lines. (Author/JMB)

Peer reviewedJohnson, E. G. – Child Development, 1977
A naming task using primary and secondary hues and achromatic stimuli was given to 669 preschool children. Results showed age and sex differences in performance and revealed an acquisition order similar to that found in related research and also similar to the proposed evolutionary order across cultures.

Results indicate that children's preferences were relatively stable over time. (Authors/MB)

Peer reviewedBelmont, John M. – Child Development, 1972
It was concluded that age and IQ have strong influences on acquisition-retrieval, but that forgetting rate is independent of these variables. (Author)

Peer reviewedRosengren, Karl S.; And Others – Child Development, 1991
Four experiments tested three to six year olds' and adults' understanding of animals' growth changes. All subjects understood that animals get larger with age. Older children and adults, but not younger children, allowed for dramatic changes in the size and shape of animals over the animals' lifespans. (BC)

Peer reviewedSabo, Ruth A.; Hagen, John W. – Child Development, 1973
Study was designed to investigate the effects of color cues and of subject-employed strategies in the development of selective attention in a short-term memory task. (Authors)

Peer reviewedKimball, Meredith M.; Dale, Philip S. – Child Development, 1972
Results of this study suggest that availability of a consistent set of color labels is related more closely to recognition accuracy than is the spontaneous production of labels in a color recognition task. (Authors)

Results are discussed in terms of possible perceptual and mnemonic devices used for recall. (Authors)
