[xmca] perception

[Andy Blunden <ablunden@mira.net>]

Vygotsky reports on several occasions (eg LSV CW v. 5 pp 86-87) on an 
experiment in which children are shown a painting and then asked to 
describe it, but then in a variation on the experiment, are asked to act 
out what they see in the painting. Version 1 tests the child's ability 
bring their perception into conscious awareness and then translate it 
into words and deliver a series of words one after the other, in answer 
to a question from a stranger and version 2 tests their perception of 
the painting more or less viscerally.

Can anyone tell me if these results still sand or have there been more 
recent experiments perhaps producing some different result?

Andy
