The normal human adult can see the difference between a" Z" and an" N". A lateral rotation
of just 90 degrees produces a stimulus change in this graphic form, which is easily …

Eighteen subjects between 6 and 26 weeks participated in a series of experiments designed
to assess the extent to which orientation is a factor in infant perception of facial and abstract …

A central question in perceptual studies is how constant perceptions are attained from
varying inputs. Stated another way, how do we identify common objects and determine their …

One of the most obvious characteristics of the visual world is its stability. The world does not
rotate as you turn around (you would become badly disoriented if it did) nor does it shoot …

F ONE were to limit a review of the field of perception to material which concerns the specific
problem in hand, ie, the orientation of plane figures as a factor in their perception by young …

Abstract Explored the 6-mo-old's ability to recognize an object in a new orientation after
being familiarized with the object while it was moving. In Exp I with a total of 58 Ss, there …

The ability of young infants aged between 8 and 17 weeks to perceive outline shapes was
investigated in nine experiments using an habituation paradigm. In Experiments I, II, and III …

A distinction has been made between visual shape and visual form (2). The stimulus
essential for shape has been considered to be a differential light dis-tribution, the perception …

Although earlier research by Bower on the spatial constancies indicated that 2-month-olds
perceive a veridical three-dimensional world, recent evidence based on distance …
