240 children (60 each at ages 4, 6, 8, and 10 years) were administered Dennis' (1987) Five Drawing Tasks and five additional developmental tasks. Three hypotheses were tested: that object recognition and working memory would be related to increasing complexity, that both would load on separate factors, and that higher-order analyses would indicate an underlying second-order spatial factor. Analysis included very strong zero-order correlations with age. When age was partialed out, three first-order factors were obtained. Higher-order analyses yielded one second-order factor which appeared related to a general factor of spatial intelligence.
对240名儿童（4岁、6岁、8岁和10岁各60名）进行了丹尼斯（1987年）的五项绘画任务以及另外五项发展任务。检验了三个假设：物体识别和工作记忆将与日益增加的复杂性相关，两者将加载到不同因素上，并且高阶分析将表明存在一个潜在的二阶空间因素。分析包括与年龄的非常强的零阶相关性。剔除年龄因素后，得到了三个一阶因素。高阶分析产生了一个二阶因素，该因素似乎与空间智力的一般因素相关。
