45 males and 45 females between 7 and 8 years of age were acquired to catch rubber playground balls which varied in both size and color. Prior to the administration of the criterion catch test, subjects indicated their choice for a preferred color ball. Analysis indicated that the 6-in. balls (diameter) were caught significantly better than were 10-in. balls. Although the main effect of ball color was nonsignificant, the children caught balls of preferred color significantly better than those of non-preferred colors. Males scored significantly higher than the females on the catching task.
研究招募了45名7至8岁的男性和45名7至8岁的女性，让他们去接住大小和颜色各异的橡胶操场球。在进行标准接球测试之前，受试者表明了他们对首选颜色球的选择。分析表明，6英寸（直径）的球比10英寸的球接住的成功率显著更高。尽管球颜色的主效应不显著，但孩子们接住首选颜色球的成功率明显高于非首选颜色的球。在接球任务中，男性的得分显著高于女性。
