Children's memory responses to a target location in a homogenous space change from being biased towards the midline of the space to being biased away. According to Dynamic Field Theory (DFT) (e.g., Schutte & Spencer, 2009), improvement in the perception of the midline symmetry axis contributes to this transition. Simulations of DFT using a 3-year-old parameter setting showed that memory biases at intermediate target locations were related to the perception of midline. Empirical results indicated that better perception of midline was associated with greater memory biases away at the 20° and 40° targets in 3-year-olds, and greater biases away at 60° in 4- to 6-year-olds. Findings support the DFT in that perception of midline is associated with memory biases.
儿童对均匀空间中目标位置的记忆反应，从偏向空间中线转变为远离中线。根据动态场理论（DFT）（例如，舒特和斯宾塞，2009年），对中线对称轴感知的改善促成了这一转变。使用3岁儿童参数设置对DFT进行的模拟表明，中间目标位置的记忆偏差与中线感知有关。实证结果表明，3岁儿童对中线的更好感知与在20°和40°目标处更大的远离记忆偏差相关，4至6岁儿童在60°目标处有更大的远离偏差。这些发现支持了动态场理论，即中线感知与记忆偏差相关。
