Influence of Body Rotation on Children's Left-Right Confusion: A Challenge to Bilateral Symmetry Theory.
Fisher, Celia B.; Camenzuli, Cheryl A.
Developmental Psychology, v23 n2 p187-89 Mar 1987
The correspondence of left-right confusion in children to the bilateral symmetry in the nervous system was tested by presenting left-right and up-down discrimination-learning tasks to 80 preschoolers who viewed these stimuli from either an upright or 90-degree-rotated body position. The data contradict anatomical model predictions. (Author/BN)
