The Role of Frames of Reference in the Development of Responsiveness to Shading Information.
Yonas, Albert; And Others
Child Development, v50 n2 p495-500 Jun 1979
After learning to discriminate tactually between a convexity and a concavity, 101 children aged three to eight years were presented a photograph of the convexity and the concavity. The relevance of egocentric, environmental, and lighting-specified frames of reference was manipulated by changing the position of the subject's head, rotating the display, and changing the location of the source of illumination.
