Effects of simultaneous acquisition of differential reading and writing habits (in English and Hebrew) on directional preferences were investigated for 72 bilingual children in Grades 1 to 6. The children reproduced series of single and multiple stimuli; horizontal directions of their responses were recorded. Increased age was accompanied by growing left-right directional preferences in response to all stimuli but Hebrew letters, for which the reversed right-left preferences appeared. These data corroborate previous findings showing effects of reading and writing habits on directional preferences.
研究了1至6年级的72名双语儿童同时习得不同阅读和书写习惯(英语和希伯来语)对方向偏好的影响。这些儿童再现了一系列单一和多个刺激;记录了他们反应的水平方向。随着年龄的增长,除希伯来字母外,对所有刺激的反应中左右方向偏好都在增加,而对于希伯来字母,出现了相反的左右偏好。这些数据证实了先前的研究结果,即阅读和书写习惯对方向偏好有影响。
