Vogel, Juliet M.; Loughlin, Kathleen A. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1978
Preschool children copied peg locations with standardized comparison pegboards aligned horizontally and diagonally and with three levels of pegboard complexity. Error patterns varied with type of alignment and display complexity. Results failed to support Bryant's hypothesis that mirror image confusions are no more frequent than other in-line…

Corsini, 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)

Affleck, Glenn; Joyce, Patricia – Journal of Genetic Psychology, 1979
The association of locus of cerebral hemispheric specialization of spatial function with identity and equivalence conservation judgments was tested in a group of four- to six-year-old right-handed children (N=31). (Author/MP)

Borke, Helene – Developmental Psychology, 1975
Reexamined the theoretical question of early childhood egocentrism by replicating Piaget and Inhelder's mountain experiment with variations to insure the age appropriateness of the task for 3- and 4-year-old children. (SDH)

Hale, Gordon A.; Lipps, Leann E. T. – 1973
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)

Burns, Susan M.; Brainerd, Charles J. – Developmental Psychology, 1979
The effects of two types of play experiences (constructive and dramatic) on 64 preschool children's perspective-taking performance were studied. (Author/MP)

Carlson, Jerry S.; Goldman, Roy D. – Journal of Genetic Psychology, 1974
Employed regression analysis to determine the association between multiplicative classification and inductive reasoning. Subjects were 103 fourth grade children. (SDH)

Jackson, Joseph P. – Developmental Psychology, 1973
The present study was designed to clarify issues concerning the development of the relative capabilities of modal systems when information acquisition is equated for the modalities by sequential presentation. (Author)
