Abstract:
The visual field advantage for digits and random shapes recognition was investigated using both longitudinal and cross-sectional methods with children from ages from 4 to 6. A right visual field advantage for digit recognition and left visual field advantage for random shape recognition were found in the age 4 group. There was no evidence of developmental increase in visual field advantage with age, though there was slight gender difference in the development of visual field advantage. Comparisons of the results of longitudinal and cross-sectional methods revealed negligible differences.
