The Relation between Hiding Skill and Judgment of Eye Direction in Preschool Children.
McGuigan, Nicola; Doherty, Martin J.
Developmental Psychology, v38 n3 p418-27 May 2002
Two experiments replicated Flavell et al.'s (1978) finding that 2.5-year-olds can hide an object behind a screen but cannot achieve the same result placing the screen in front. Move-screen performance related to judgment of what a person in a picture was looking at. Move-object task remained easier than the move-screen task even with an interesting screen and dull object.
