- Inhibition of the mirror generalization process in reading in school-aged children, Ahr et al. (2016). Journal of Experimental Child Psychology. Outcome recorded: successful.
the current study aimed at replicating this result in school-aged children. Three age groups—1st, 3rd, and 5th graders— performed a negative priming study in which they were asked to determine on the primes whether two letters were identical and on the probes whether two animals facing opposite directions were identical. All three groups of children required more time to discriminate two letters that were lateral mirror images of one another (e.g., b/d) than two letters…
