Numerous studies have established that visual working memory has a limited capacity that increases during childhood. However, debate continues over the source of capacity limits and its developmental increase. Simmering (2008) adapted a computational model of spatial cognitive development, the Dynamic Field Theory, to explain not only the source…

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…

Bouaziz, Serge; Magnan, Annie – Cognitive Development, 2007
The aim of this study was to determine the contribution of the visual perception and graphic production systems [Van Sommers, P. (1989). "A system for drawing and drawing-related neuropsychology." "Cognitive Neuropsychology," 6, 117-164] to the manifestation of the "Centripetal Execution Principle" (CEP), a graphic…

Peer reviewedZelazo, Philip David; And Others – Cognitive Development, 1996
Examines children's ability to use their knowledge to guide their behavior in a dimensional change, color-shaped card sort. Subjects were asked to sort cards according to different guidelines. Four experiments were carried out which show a disassociation between knowledge and its use. Findings indicate that knowing rules is sometimes insufficient…

Peer reviewedBerger, 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…

Brodeur, Darlene A. – Cognitive Development, 2004
Children (ages 5, 7, and 9 years) and young adults completed two visual attention tasks that required them to make a forced choice identification response to a target shape presented in the center of a computer screen. In the first task (high correlation condition) each target was flanked with the same distracters on 80% of the trials (valid…
