The ability of 3, 4 and 5 yr old children to infer the position of an object in a room from information contained on a map was assessed under 5 conditions: map aligned inside the room (the pretest); map aligned outside the room; map rotated 180.degree. inside the room; map rotated 180.degree. outside the room; and map held vertically outside the room. Children as young as 3 yr could read a map aligned inside a room but the ability to compensate for a rotated map did not develop until age 5. The position of the map inside or outside the room did not affect performance in either the aligned or rotated conditions, with the exception that fewer egocentric errors were made in the rotated-outside condition than in the rotated-inside condition. The vertically held map was easily interpreted by most children who succeeded on the pretest, indicating that up and down are readily interchanged with near and far. A 2-component model of map reading was discussed.
