Purpose of this experiment was to explore the effects of pre- and postshift stimulus similarity, type of shift, and difficulty of discrimination in the standard solution shift - concept identification paradigm. (Authors/CB)

Peer reviewedCroll, William L. – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1972
Analyses indicated that varying the range of test stimuli changes the discriminability of the stimuli within that range, even though the physical differences among these stimuli remain constant. (Author)

Peer reviewedSmeets, Paul M.; Barnes-Holmes, Dermot; Roche, Bryan – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2001
Trained preschoolers and adults on three sets of successive discriminations with stimuli labeled A, B, and R. Tested for derived stimulus-response relations and stimulus-stimulus relations. Adults displayed class-consistent B-R and A-B performances over all conditions. Children's display of class-consistent B-R performance varied by training…
