Children's Spatial Knowledge of Their School Campus.
Anooshian, Linda J.; Kromer, Megan K.
Developmental Psychology, v22 n6 p854-60 Nov 1986
Fourth-, sixth-, and eighth-grade children were tested with different methodologies for deriving measures of their knowledge of interlandmark distances and directions on their school campus. Overall results emphasized that measures derived from children's estimates of direction information were not comparable with measures derived from their estimates of distance information. (Author/DR)
