Tries to unravel some of the problems concerning the previous finding that increasing the number of depth cues in pictures has a depressing effect on spatial accuracy of three dimensional reconstruction of pictures. Evidence does not support a deficiency in perceiving pictorial depth in African children. (AM)

Discussion of stereoscopic and planoscopic diagrams as they relate to the level of understanding in depth relationships. Findings indicate a significantly lower understanding in stereoscopic diagrams when compared to a real three-dimensional situation. (JEG)

An experimental test of visual closure based on an information-theory concept of perception was devised to test the ability to discriminate visual stimuli with reduced cues. The test is to be administered in a timed individual situation in which the subject is presented with sets of incomplete drawings of simple objects that he is required to name…
