| Abstract: | Children ranging in age from 9 to 41 months were presented with pairs of random shapes which varied in the number of angles. Over 4 successive test days, preference of these children was an increasing linear function of the complexity of the stimuli, with no change across days and no difference among the three age groups into which Ss could be divided. Results of this study are compared and contrasted with previous research. |
