Peer reviewedKeogh, Barbara K.; Donlon, Genevieve McG. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1972
Moderately and severely learning disabled boys were evaluated in terms of constructs of reflection-impulsivity and field dependence-independence, which concerns cognitive style and whether one is able to perceive and utilize discrete elements of his perceptual field. (KW)

Peer reviewedSpitz, Herman H.; Semchuk, Maria T. – American Journal of Mental Deficiency, 1979
Results suggested that, when encountering difficulties in the problem-solving situations on the test, the retarded Ss tended to take the easiest or shortest path to a response by scanning a minimum amount of material. (Author/DLS)

Shigaki, Irene S.; Wolf, Willavene – 1979
The ordering of difficulty of logic principles and the age of acquisition for each were examined with 160 gifted children (20 each from ages 4 to 11). Five principles of class logic were explored: three orders of enthymemes, i.e., missing conclusion, missing minor premise, and missing major premise; and two additional third order enthymemes, i.e.,…

Peer reviewedDykman, Roscoe A.; And Others – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1980
Poor performance on the search task, which differentiated the clinical groups from the normal group but not from one another, was associated across groups with adverse conduct ratings, lower achievement, and lower scores on the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC) Arithmetic, Coding, Information, Digit Span (ACID) subtests.

Reid, D. Kim – 1975
Thirty impulsive and 30 reflective EMR (educable mentally retarded) Black students (9-12 years old) were administered conjunctive concept attainment tasks with or without a memory aid. Repeated measures analyses of variance were used to examine the effects of the independent variables (cognitive tempo, presence or absence of a memory aid, and…

Peer reviewedAshman, Adrian – Australia and New Zealand Journal of Developmental Disabilities, 1983
The utility of a model of cognition for developing the coding strategies of mentally retarded persons was assessed with 20 moderately and severely retarded residents (mean age 15 years) of an institution. Correlational analyses confirmed the sequential processing nature of the training tasks, and the relationship between coding and language tests.…
