Differential Salience of Facial Features in Children's Perception of Affective Expression.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Cunningham, Joseph G.; Odom, Richard D. – Child Development, 1986
In the first of two tasks, 5- and 11-year-olds recalled the array location of social photographs of an unfamiliar adult expressing anger, disgust, fear, joy, and shame. In the second task, subjects were tested for their incidental recall of those features which were not previously isolated. Results indicated a mouth-eyes-nose hierarchy for…

Perceptual Sensitivity, Integral Perception, and the Similarity Classifications of Preschool Children and Adults.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Odom, Richard D.; Cook, Gregory L. – Developmental Psychology, 1984
Assesses preschoolers' and adults' relative ability to solve classification problems in which a similarity criterion is the only criterion appropriate for solution. Also investigates effects of the salience of individual dimensions on solution-relevant similarity classifications. (AS)

Problem Solving and the Perceptual Salience of Variability and Constancy: A Developmental Study
Odom, Richard D.; Guzman, Richard D. – J Exp Child Psychol, 1970
Age and condition (either constancy-relevant or variability-relevant) interact, with the youngest group in the constancy-relevant condition performing most poorly on concept identification tasks. (MH)

Perception of Multidimensional Stimuli: A Differential-Sensitivity Account of Cognitive Processing and Development.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Cook, Gregory L.; Odom, Richard D. – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1992
In four experiments, younger children and adults showed greater perceptual sensitivity and more extensive conceptual labeling for difference relations than for identity relations. Younger and older children demonstrated consistent dimensional selectivity in tasks involving free classification and the estimation of differences. (Author/BG)

Effects of Perceptual Salience on the Recall of Relevant and Incidental Dimensional Values: A Developmental Study
Odom, Richard D. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1972
Perceptual and cognitive development were investigated in two recall tasks with 48 Ss from each of the grades kindergarten, third, and sixth. (Author)
Descriptors: Analysis of Variance, Cognitive Development, Perceptual Development, Performance Factors
Classification and Perceptual Development: Exploring Issues about Integrality and Differential Sensitivity.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Aschkenasy, Jeannie R.; Odom, Richard D. – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1982
Investigates the effects of predisposed and distinctiveness-based salience on children's classifications in 96 preschoolers and fifth graders given a classification task designed to reflect a developmental shift from integral to separable perception. (Author/MP)

Developmental Differences in the Perception and Production of Facial Expressions
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Odom, Richard D.; Lemond, Carolyn M. – Child Development, 1972
For the age range tested there is a lag between the perception and production of certain facial expressions. (Authors)

Perceptual Sensitivity to Dimensional and Similarity Relations in Free and Rule-Governed Classifications.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Cook, Gregory L.; Odom, Richard D. – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1988
Two experiments investigated perceptual primacy of dimensional and similarity relations in stimulus classifications of younger and older subjects. Results support a differential-sensitivity view of perceptual development which asserts that individuals at all ages primarily perceive and use separate relations. (RWB)

The Decalage from the Perspective of a Perceptual Salience Account of Developmental Change.
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…
