Effects of Media on Picturing by Children and Adults.
Seidman, Susan; Beilin, Harry
Developmental Psychology, v20 n4 p667 Jul 1984

Results showed an age progression from viewing photography as only reflecting the real object to viewing it as a medium that allows for control and alteration of reality. (Author/AS)
