Abstract
Making use of 3 subjects studied intensively Weiner reports his findings "on the development of perception in adults." His prime concern was centered upon the new visual percepts and modes of perceptual functioning which he examined by the use of a specially constructed distorted room in which the initial response would be one of maladaptive perceptual and motor behavior and a second distorted perceptual experience in which the S''s could demonstrate their capacity to "carry-over" the experience from the primary situation to the secondary one. His findings indicate the gradual development of a new perceptual development in the initial situation which inturn is carried over to the second experimental situation. 22 references.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
