Impact of Learning to Read on Directionality in Perception: A Further Cross-Cultural Analysis
This study is a further cross-cultural test of the processes underlying developmental changes in the directionality of perceptual exploration associated with the learning of reading and writing in school. 20 right-handed children in all grades of a Jewish and an Arab city elementary school were individually tested in exploration tasks. As expected the right-left tendency in the Arab children was much stronger, lasting into the upper grades. It wa…
The Influence of Socioeconomic Status and Style of Life on Cognitive Development of Israeli Bedouin Children
The effect of two social variables thought to be relevant to cognitive development was studied in a tribe of Israeli Bedouin undergoing acculturation. Proceeding from Berry's ecocultural theory, two social variables were derived from anthropological observations: socioeconomic status (SES) and style of life (SOL). Data were collected on 161 children using tests of Piaget's spatial concepts and conservation operations. The results substantiated th…

Representation of depth by children: Spatial strategies and lateral biases
Preschool and elementary-school children from the United States and Israel represented depth relations in pictures. A lateral bias to place near objects on the left side appeared in English and Hebrew readers of all ages and in older Arabic readers; this bias is consistent with left-right asymmetries observed in Western art. The overall directionality of notational systems was seen as constraining, but not causing, the left bias. In all cultural …

Developmental Trends in Directionality of Drawing in Jewish and Arab Israeli Children
Jewish and Arab Israeli children (n = 484), attending pre-kindergarten to eighth grade, were required to copy a vertical and a horizontal line. Partial samples were also tested using the WPPSI. It was found that Jewish and Arab children were similar in their preference for top-bottom directionality, but in copying the horizontal line Jewish children used mostly a left-right and Arab children used mostly a right-left stroke. Correlations with the …
Patterns of Intellectual Ability in Jewish and Arab Children in Israel II: Urban Matched Samples
Following the finding (previously reported in JCCP) of a particular pattern of WPPSI subtests in samples drawn from children of Arab villages, we studied a sample of Arab city children. Arab and Jewish children living in a city in northern Israel were matched as closely as possible for school grade, age, and SES. The results indicated little if any difference between Jewish and Arab children in level or pattern of the intellectual abilities tappe…
Patterns of Intellectual Ability in Jewish and Arab Children in Israel
Two samples of Israeli Arab village children were tested on an Arabic translation of the WPPSI. The subtest profiles of these samples were compared to a relevant subsample of the Israeli Jewish normative national sample. In contrast to the Jewish ethnic subsamples, the pattern for the Arab rural samples was distinctly different. These findings, based on the usual mean score analysis, were supplemented by a more extensive analysis based on the tot…
Information Detection through Differential GSRs in Bedouins of the Israeli Desert
A series of studies was carried out to investigate further Israeli ethnic differences in psychophysiological functioning. Data obtained from Abu Rhabiah Bedouin samples confirmed the earlier findings of higher skin conductances and relatively low rate of GSR reactivity previously found in Israeli Bedouins. Among both Jewish and Bedouin samples, the level of reported formal education seemed systematically related to differential GSR reactivity
Perceptual Exploration in Israeli Jewish and Bedouin Children
A sample of 104 Israeli Bedouin children were tested in an attempt to clarify further the factors influencing developmental trends in visual perceptual exploration. In addition to a further demonstration of the influence of the specific characteristics of the language of school instruction, the findings suggest the importance of extra-school reading opportunities. A discrepancy between two indices of perceptual exploration was related to differen…
Effects of Ethnic Origin and Parental SES on WPPSI Performance of Pre-School Children in Israel
A Hebrew translation of the Wechsler Preschool Primary Scale of Intelligence was administered to 1072 Israeli-born children aging 4 to 6 1/2 years. Groups originating from Israel, East Europe, Middle East and North Africa, all subdivided into High vs. Low SES groups, were identified. The eight groups differed significantly in the level but usually not in the pattern of the subtests' scores. First generation Oriental children performed relatively …
