Résumé
4 experiments investigated
the development of children's ability to recognize perceptual relational commonalities such as
symmetry or monotonicity. In Experiment 1, 6- and 8-year-olds were able to recognize higherorder
relational similarity across different dimensions (e.g., size/saturation) and across different
polarities (e.g., increase/decrease), whereas 4-year-olds could recognize higher-order relational
matches only when they were supported by lower-order commonalities (e.g., size/size but not
size /saturation matches). Further experiments tested how the processes of comparison and categorization
affected 4-year-olds' ability to recognize relational similarity. The results of the experiments
supported the hypothesis that comparison and categorization processes lead to changes
in children's representations of relational structure, enabling them to recognize more abstract
commonalities. A computational model lent further support to the claims.
