Penk, Walter – Developmental Psychology, 1971
The effect of subject age, sex, examiner, and stimulus word differences on developmental sequences of idiodynamic set responses in children's word associations was investigated. Subjects were 100 children, ages 7-11. The findings could not be interpreted as evidence of stage progressions, or hierarchical rankings in mediational processes. (NH)
