| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The main purpose of this study was to examine about developmental stage that canonical visual size appears in order to design visual material in consideration of cognitive characteristics.
As a result of the experimental study,when drawing a single object on paper, it was observed that small objects were drawn smaller and larger objects were drawn larger even in 6-year-olds. From these results, the validity of considering canonical visual size in visual material for elementary school childern and above was verified.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究の成果により，小学校1年生に相当する年齢以上の学習者に対して，初見で実際の大きさが不明な物体を視覚教材で提示する際に，枠線内での描画の大きさを実物の大きさに応じて調整することで，より正確にその物体の大きさが理解される可能性が示唆された。大きさを正確に伝達することにより，その物体の用途や特徴などについての誤解の発生が抑制され，正確な内容の学習が保証されることが期待される。
