Spatial Perspective Taking: Coordination of Left-Right and Near-Far Spatial Dimensions.
Jacobsen, Terri Lomenick; Waters, Harriet Salatas
Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, v39 n1 p72-84 Feb 1985
Second- and fourth-grade children viewed a cylindrical object in nine positions and identified the 90- , 180- , or 270-degree positions from a set of photographs. Perspectives in which the object differed from the child's view in both left-right and near-far dimensions were more difficult than perspectives that only transformed one dimension. (Author/AS)
