Bethell, Andrew; Silve, Michael – Screen Education, 1977
Offers a brief student analysis of the visual elements which compose the front pages of two daily British newspapers in a single day. (MH)

Pezdek, Kathy – Child Development, 1987
Assessed the effect of the amount of physical detail in pictures on the picture recognition memory of 7- and 9-year-olds, young adults, and adults over 68. For each age group, recognition accuracy was significantly higher for pictures presented in the simple rather than the complex form. (PCB)

Dannemiller, James L.; Stephens, Benjamin R. – Child Development, 1988
Evaluates models of infant visual preferences with predictions based on the physical attributes of visual patterns using pairs of schematic faces and abstract patterns identical except for contrast reversals. Results suggest that a fundamental change in the determinants of visual preference occurs postnatally between 6 and 12 weeks. (Author/RWB)

Bornstein, Marc H.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1986
Two variants of the habituation paradigm were used to investigate fine orientation discrimination and shape constancy in 34 young infants. Results demonstrate that conditions determine whether young infants show sensitivity to relatively fine variations in pattern orientation or give evidence of shape constancy with the same patterns.

Housner, Lynn Dale – Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 1984
This study investigated the role of imagery in the short-term retention of complex, visually presented movement sequences. Findings suggest that visual imagery may play a functional role in the free recall of modeled movements; however, there was no indication that imagery was involved in the retention of serial information.

Bornstein, Marc H.; Krinsky, Sharon J. – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1985
Four experiments assessed converging aspects of four-month-old infants' perceptions of visual patterns. Results together corroborate and extend previous findings that vertical symmetry has a special status in early perceptual development and that infants can perceive pattern wholes. (Author/AS)

Slater, Alan; And Others – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1985
Three experiments are described which relate to models of infant visual preferences and to the ways in which preferences can be modified or created by habituation. Results suggest that the Banks and Salapatek's contrast sensitivity model can be a powerful predictor of preferential looking in newborns and that preferences based on experience can be…

Haaf, Robert A.; Brown, Cheryl J. – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1976
Infants at two age levels were shown six patterns which represented three levels of stimulus complexity and two types of organization, facial and nonfacial. Results agree with previous studies in suggesting a change between ages 10 and 15 weeks in dimensions which underlie infants' response to facelike patterns. (Author/HS)

Staller, Joshua; Sekuler, Robert – American Journal of Psychology, 1976
Adults and children judged mirror and nonmirror pairs of stimuli. The findings in this research suggested a nonperceptual explanation of mirror-image confusions, one involving conceptual and linguistic considerations. (Editor/RK)

Rand, Colleen Wright – Child Development, 1973
It was concluded that drawing rules are essential and that adequate visual analysis is a necessary but not sufficient prerequisite to the production of accurate copies. (Author)

Lowery, Lawrence F.; Allen, Leslie R. – J Res Sci Teaching, 1969
Describes procedures, results, and conclusions of a study designed to determine the resemblance sorting ability of a non-random sample of 120 first grade students. Results indicate that (a) shape is visually an easier attribute to handle than pattern, and pattern is easier than size, (b) a single attribute is easier than two or three, and (c)…
