Children's Deictic and nondeictic Interpretations of the Spatial Locatives "in front of" and "behind."
Cox, Maureen V.; Isard, Sarah
Journal of Child Language, v17 n2 p481-88 Jun 1990
Describes a study that concluded that children generally treat the spatial locatives "in front of" and "behind" in a nondeictic way when a referent object with an obvious front is involved. Tasks that emphasized the viewpoint of the observer, however, caused a deictic response. (GLR)
