Peer reviewedCorsini, David A.; Berg, Allan J. – Child Development, 1973
Examines the interrelationships of task performances and developmental changes of 4-, 6-, and 8-year-olds. Significant developmental changes were observed on transposition, cue interference, and spatial memory. The pattern of intercorrelations between tasks suggested a high degree of correspondence across tasks. (ST)

As children grow older they show an increasing preference for classifying objects on the basis of shape rather than color. To clarify the nature of this "dimension preference," children of ages 3 1/2 to 6 1/2 years were given a method of triads test of dimension preferences, followed (after a week's delay) by a component selection task. The most…

Spitz, Herman H.; And Others – Develop Psychol, 1970
Contrary to Piaget's predictions, adolescent retardates and 9-year-old normals were more susceptible to the Oppel-Kundt Illusion than high school sophomores and adults. No group differences were found on the Poggendorf Illusion. (MH)

Peer reviewedMiller, Leon K. – Child Development, 1971
Research was designed to determine whether developmental differences in sensitivity to more peripherally presented material could be found under conditions in which overt eye movements during the presentation of task material were not possible. (Author)

Youniss, James; Robertson, Anne De Shazo – Child Develop, 1970
Results supported Piaget's viewpoint that mental imagery and general symbolic functioning are dependent on the growth of intelligence with respect to the preadolescent period. (Author)

Keogh, Barbara K. – 1970
This study was designed to consider effects of age, sex, intelligence, lateral usage, and lateral awareness on young children's performance of spatial organization tasks. The sample consisted of 79 Caucasian, middle socioeconomic status nursery school children (mean C.A. 57.80, S.D. 4.47 months), 44 boys and 35 girls. Spatial organization was…

Wigfield, Allan; Asher, Steven R. – 1978
To assess the effects of age differences, type of task, intelligence (IQ), and reading achievement on referential communication performance, third and fifth grade children were asked to communicate messages for three types of tasks: word pairs, picture descriptions, and school-locations directions. The latter was specifically designed to assess…

Odom, Richard D. – 1977
This paper examines the concept of decalage from two cognitive-change positions (structures of logical thought and attentional and verbal mediators) and proposes an alternative explanation for decalage from a perceptual-change point of view. The term decalage is used to summarize the relation between differences in performance of various age…
