“…To explore the potential origins of relative object weight in young children’s reasoning about object motion, Perry et al’s (2008) study seems most pertinent. Here, they employed an apparatus with a slope and barrier, and found that toddlers frequently searched for objects released down the slope in a location beyond the barrier; a finding also noted by various other studies employing the same apparatus or simplified versions of it (Berthier, DeBlois, Poirier, Novak, & Clifton, 2000; Butler, Berthier, & Clifton, 2002; Gresham, 2012; Hood, Carey, & Prasada, 2000; Keen et al, 2008; Kloos, Haddad, & Keen, 2006; Mash, Keen, & Berthier, 2003; Mash, Novak, Berthier, & Keen, 2006; Perry, Samuelson, & Spencer, 2009).…”
