Aesthetic Preferences: Influence of Perceptual Ability, Age and Complexity of Stimulus.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Chevrier, Jacques; Delorme, Andre – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1980
Aesthetic preferences for overlapping geometrical figures were studied in subjects ages 6 through 14 in the context of the theory of functional pleasure. Results confirmed the hypothesis that the complexity level (number of crossings) of the preferred stimulus varies with the subjects' perceptual capacities, which develop with age. (Author/SJL)

Bender Visual-Motor Abilities of Slow Learners.

Hetrick, Ethel W. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1979
It was found, among other things, that rural Ss performed significantly below their mental ages more frequently than urban Ss; and that between the chronological ages of 10 to 14 years, while urban Ss appeared to perform as expected from mental ages, a significant number of rural Ss performed below expectations.

Disabled Readers: Their Intellectual and Perceptual Capacities at Differing Ages.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Miller, John W.; McKenna, Michael C. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1981
Two groups of disabled readers, ages 8 and 11, were tested. Perceptual abilities related more strongly for younger students, while intelligence related more strongly for older students. Questions are raised about the validity of using expectancy formulae with younger disabled readers and the "learning disabilities" approach with older disabled…

Labeling, Attention and Perception, A Developmental Study.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Sagi, Abraham – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1979
Findings of this Israeli study suggest that perception is affected by lables, learning, and selective attention; that these effects are determined developmentally; and that as age increases, the effects of verbal cues diminish, while the effects of perceptual cues increase. (Author/DLS)
