Making Memories: The Development of Long-Term Visual Knowledge in Children with Visual Agnosia

Figure 2

Rey’s figure: copy and recall after a 15-minute delay performed by L., G., and R. The good copy realized by L. required a very slow process, beginning with the triangle-rectangle at the left top of the figure and adding segment by segment until the end. G. reproduced some details with general spatial contiguity. R. closed in on model and showed difficulties in drawing both details and global shape. All children had poor recall: L. could recall local details but failed to integrate them into an integrated whole, whereas G. and R. drawings were limited to very few details.
