O'Hare, David; Westwood, Helen
Developmental Psychology, v20 n1 p150-58 Jan 1984
Investigates the sensitivity of children aged 6 to 10 to stylistic properties of line drawings. Subjects were asked to judge the similarity of 12 drawings which varied along the dimensions of clarity, expressiveness, and line thickness. In contrast to previous research, the youngest children had the ability to make multidimensional discriminations. (Author/CB)
