Adults see vision to be more informative than it is.

This Academic Paragraph is about an experiment conducted by Jessica Wang and her colleagues. They wanted to see what information vision supplies in children. They used 24 students’ to conduct their experiment. They used a box with an objet inside and asked to students what the weight, temperature and color of the object was, but only buy lifting a cover on the box to see the color of the object, use a hole in the side of the box big enough for a finger to tell the temperature of the object and lastly lifting the object with only a string attached. They where shown a picture of a person doing one the tasked of lifting to cover or checking the temperature and finally lifting the object.. Then they were asked a question about the object, color weight or temperature. They got most of the questions right, but it took longer for them to correctly answer about the weight and temperature of the object. In the experiment the findings suggest children’s conceptual understanding of sight follows a person into adulthood, even though adults fully understand the conceptual level that it’s impossible to know what the weight or temperature would be.
