Young Children's Knowledge about Visual Perception: Projective Size and Shape.
Pillow, Bradford H.; Flavell, John H.
Child Development, v57 n1 p125-35 Feb 1986
Four experiments investigated three- and four-year-old children's knowledge of projective size-distance and projective shape-orientation relationships. Results indicated that preschool children's understanding of these relationships seems at least partly cognitive rather than wholly perceptive, providing further evidence for the acquisition of level 2 percept knowledge during early childhood.
