This study investigated the perceptual functioning of individuals whose Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI-168) profiles indicated schizophrenic tendencies, but who did not exhibit marked thought disorder. (Author)

Compared five distinct classes of models of how people judge the relative sizes of named objects. Four basic experiments were all concerned with the amount of time necessary to decide which of two named things is larger. (Editor/RK)

Thirty elderly subjects (mean age 70 years) were matched with 30 young Ss (mean age 20 years) and tested on a kinesthetic short-term memory task which required the replication of criterion moves after a variable retention interval under conditions of either rest, differing interpolated movement tasks, or mental activity. (Author/CL)

Two experiments are reported which compared different forms of presentation of a perspective-taking task. The task required 4-year-old children to select pictures showing another person's view of an array similar to Piaget and Inhelder's mountains. (Editor)

Various combinations of tables, charts, graphs, and explanatory verbiage are normally used to analyze and feedback survey data to groups. Perception mapping provides an alternative to the many pages typically used in this process. (Author)

The eye movements of infants, between 4 and 11 weeks old, were recorded while they viewed either a representation of a face or nonface stimulus. (Author/SB)

Subjects aged 8, 10, 12, and 18 years participated in two visual search tasks. (Author/SB)

Indicates that persons with different spatial visualization abilities enter different professions and that some sex differences exist with regard to spatial abilities. (RL)

Discussed is the nature of a central scotoma, or decreased central vision, and described are current techniques for training an individual to use the peripheral retina. (Author/IM)

Presents results of an investigation of visual cues which lead to word and letter recognition. (SL)

Two studies explored the hypothesis that young children perceive integrally some stimuli that older children perceive separably. In both experiments, kindergarten, second- and fifth-grade children were required to classify sets of stimuli that varied in size and brightness. (SB)

By presenting moving bars of different widths to the two eyes, an attempt was made to model the differential visual persistence produced by differential intensity filtering in the two eyes (the Fertsch-Pulfrich effect). (Editor)

Cited is research which indicates that ocular motor abnormalities in children with reading difficulties are factors in the processing of visual information. (CL)

Analysis of 40 first-grade children's performance on two discrimination learning problems revealed that children do transfer dimensional information between the visual and tactual modalities. (Author/JMB)
