Perspective Taking Test for Children (PTT-C)

Written By Iliana

Children see scenes of toy photographers taking pictures of layouts of objects from different angles. Children were asked to choose which one of four pictures could have been taken from a specific viewpoint. See Frick and Pichelmann (2023) for a computerized version on tablet computers (GNU Octave 4.0.0).
