Preschoolers' Understanding of Plan and Oblique Maps: The Role of Geometric and Representational Correspondence.
Liben, Lynn S.; Yekel, Candice A.
Child Development, v67 n6 p2780-96 Dec 1996
Preschoolers placed stickers on maps to show locations of objects currently in view. Vantage point (eye-level versus raised), map form (plan versus oblique), and item type (floor versus furniture location) were varied. Results showed that using an oblique map first aided subsequent performance on a plan map. Subjects performed worse on floor locations than furniture locations. (BC)
