Some Variables Influencing Judgments of the Size of Angles.

Simon, A.; Ward, L. O.

Contemporary Educational Psychology, v4 n1 p11-14 Jan 1979

Eleven to fourteen year olds judged the size of eight angles. Subjects were grouped according to reading ability and their nonverbal intelligence was measured. Significant differences in performance were found in relation to age and ability variables, and between the angle-size ranges of 0 to 90 degrees and 90 to 180 degrees. (Author/RD)
