Developmental Changes in Face Recognition during Childhood: Evidence from Upright and Inverted Faces
de Heering, Adelaide; Rossion, Bruno; Maurer, Daphne – Cognitive Development, 2012
Adults are experts at recognizing faces but there is controversy about how this ability develops with age. We assessed 6- to 12-year-olds and adults using a digitized version of the Benton Face Recognition Test, a sensitive tool for assessing face perception abilities. Children's response times for correct responses did not decrease between ages 6…

Hayes, Rachel A.; Slater, Alan M.; Longmore, Christopher A. – Cognitive Development, 2009
Nine-month-olds can respond to a change in rhyme when the conditioned head turn procedure is used [Hayes, R. A., Slater, A., & Brown, E. (2000). "Infants' ability to categorise on the basis of rhyme." "Cognitive Development, 15," 405-419]. However, it is not known whether infants are detecting the change in vowel, the change in coda, or both. In…

Conry-Murray, Clare – Cognitive Development, 2009
This study examined reasoning about gender roles in a traditional society in Benin, West Africa. Ninety-seven male and female adolescents and adults evaluated conflicts between a husband and a wife over gender norms to determine whether gender norms, are judged to be moral or conventional. Although most attributed decision-making power to the…

Berger, Carole; Hatwell, Yvette – Cognitive Development, 1993
The developmental change from global toward dimensional classifications, usually observed in vision, was investigated in haptics with stimuli varying according to their size and roughness. Results indicated that, although more overall similarity classifications were observed in children than in adults, this kind of classification was never…

Hall, D. Geoffrey – Cognitive Development, 1996
Four experiments used a free-naming task to examine four-year olds' and adults' default construals of solids and nonsolids. Found that children named an individual-related word (such as shape) for solid materials, but gave a substance-related name for nonsolids. Results suggest that children conceptualize solids and nonsolids in distinct,…

Rosser, Rosemary A.; Chandler, Kacey – Cognitive Development, 1995
Examined how children's and adults' initial conceptions of objects and space influence predictions about the physical world, but lead the naive person to misconstrue a dynamic event. Found that participants proficiently anticipated where an oscillating screen would contact a hidden object, but underestimated the distance until contact.…
