The Role of Symmetry in Infant Form Discrimination.
Fisher, Celia B.; And Others
Child Development, v52 n2 p457-62 Jun 1981
Forty-eight four-month-old infants were tested in a habituation-dishabituation discrimination paradigm using vertically symmetrical, horizontally symmetrical, and asymetrical forms. Results suggest that babies respond to "goodness of organization" rather than to details unique to particular symmetrical patterns. (Author/RH)
