Young Children's Ability to Infer Spatial Relationships: Evidence from a Large, Familiar Environment.
Herman, James F.; And Others
Child Development, v56 n5 p1195-1203 Oct 1985
Young and older nursery school children were taken to three locations in their school and asked to point to five targets on the school grounds. Older children were more accurate than younger children, but children's spatial representations were relatively nonintegrated at both age levels. Consistent sex differences in favor of males were found. (Author/RH)
