Developmental Influences in Pictorial Depth Perception among Hong Kong Chinese Children
A developmental model is presented relating to the expected age trends in the acquisition of Three-Dimensional Pictorial Perception (3DPPI as well as related sex differences. The Hong Kong Chinese data support the expected increase in 3DPP with ages from three to seventeen and the expected male 3DPP superiority after age eight, thought to stem from increased testosterone output from that age, stimulating the development of the cholinergic inhibit…

Developmental Influences on Geometric Illusion Susceptibility among Hong Kong Chinese Children
Hong Kong Chinese developmental results are presented to test cross-cultural developmental theories relating to changes in illusion susceptibility with age. The Muller-Lyer (M-L) and Sander-Parallelogram (S-P) illusion data confirm the expected decrease with age from 3-12 (Walter, 1942), and the later increase to age 21 due to exposure to a more sophisticated environment (Wapner and Werner, 1957). The data also supported Piaget and Morf's (1956) …

Effects of Parental Attitudes and Modern Exposure on Chinese Traditional-Modern Attitude Formation
Following recent Traditional-Modern attitude change regarding research, additional evidence to support traditional-modern attitude change hypotheses is presented, and is concerned with the relative effects of parental socialization and other modernizing influences on attitude change among groups of Hong Kong Chinese. Younger Hakka village children were found, as expected, to have significantly more traditional attitudes than other children, while…
Scaling Chinese Traditional-Modern Attitudes and the GSR Measurement of "Important" Versus "Un-Important" Chinese Concepts
This paper is concerned with theoretical and scaling problems involved in the development and research application of the Chinese T-M Scale, used to test the Traditional-Modern consistency theory of attitude change. T-M theory considers that individuals exposed to conflicting traditional and modern cognitions resolve traditional-modern conflict either by the development of compromise attitudes or by alternate modes of inconsistency reduction. The…
