Levels in the Identifying of Orientation by Preschool Children.
And Others; Braine, Lila Ghent
Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, v30 n1 p171-85 Aug 1980
This study tested whether the first level in processing orientation information results in perceiving whether a shape is upright or nonupright. Theory states that nonupright orientations are not distinguished from each other. As predicted, three- and four-year-olds discriminated upright from nonupright pictures more readily than they discriminated nonuprights from each other. (Author/DB)
