Effect of Stimulus Preview and Supplemental Visual Cues on Children's Spatial Representation and Perceptual-Motor Anticipation in a Discrete Tracking Task
90 children, Grades 1 to 5, performed an anticipatory tracking task under 3 conditions: supplemental visual cues, stimulus pattern preview, and control; they then drew the pattern of the tracking stimulus. Analyses showed anticipation in masked tracking and correct pattern drawing to be age-related and means of task solution heavily dependent upon experimental condition.
