Description
The effect of stimulus plane orientation (horizontal vs
vertical) on mirror-image oblique discrimination was
investigated for children 5 to 8 years of age. A
significant difference in learning rate favoring the
vertical plane presentation was obtained. Tracing the
stimuli had no effect on learning rate in either the
horizontal or vertical plane. The results were explained
in terms of egocentricity in the child's representation of
spatial relations.
