Abstract: Children's ability to flexibly shift attention between different representational schemes was investigated using the dimensional change card sorting task. Across three experiments ( N = 56 three-year-olds and N = 40 four-year-olds in [Experiment]; N = 14 three-year-olds in [Experiment]; and N = 14 three-year-olds in [Experiment]) the role of perceptual information on children's cognitive flexibility was investigated by manipulating different aspects of the task materials between pre- and postswitch phases. Better performance was observed when either task-relevant (the color or shape of the images on the cards) or task-irrelevant information (the background color or shape of the actual cards) was changed, with this improvement occurring when the changes were salient enough to induce a stimulus novelty effect.
