Wilcox, Barbara Lee; Teghtsoonian, Martha – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1971
A developmental study of the relation between apparent size and pictorial depth demonstrated the usefulness of operant techniques in establishing equivalent differential responding and interesting stimulus equivalence in adults, 9- and 3-year-olds. (Author/AJ)

Newmeister, Gayla Hansen – Research Quarterly, 1977

Yonas, Albert; Hagen, Margaret – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1973

Dowd, John M.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1980
Tests the hypothesis that children will be better than adults at perceiving depth at large disparities in random-dot stereograms. Subjects were 4, 6, 8, and 25 years of age, with six males and six females in each of the four age groups. (MP)

McGurk, Harry; Jahoda, Gustav – Journal of Cross-Cultural Psychology, 1975
Tries to unravel some of the problems concerning the previous finding that increasing the number of depth cues in pictures has a depressing effect on spatial accuracy of three dimensional reconstruction of pictures. Evidence does not support a deficiency in perceiving pictorial depth in African children. (AM)

Bremner, J. Gavin; Batten, Annabel – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1991
In this study of sensitivity to viewpoint, children between the ages of 6 and 14 years were asked to draw an L-shaped array of 3 cubes from 1 of 3 views. At every age, children showed sensitivity to their view in the sense that there were consistent differences between the drawings produced in the three viewing conditions. (SH)

Groffman, Sidney – 1970
An experimental test of visual closure based on an information-theory concept of perception was devised to test the ability to discriminate visual stimuli with reduced cues. The test is to be administered in a timed individual situation in which the subject is presented with sets of incomplete drawings of simple objects that he is required to name…
