Peer reviewedOffenbach, Stuart I.; And Others – Journal of Genetic Psychology, 1973
Descriptors: Age Differences, Attention, Cues, Dimensional Preference
Peer reviewedOffenbach, Stuart I.; And Others – Child Development, 1972
Results indicate that children's preferences were relatively stable over time. (Authors/MB)

Peer reviewedTragakis, Chris – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1975
Presents two experiments which examined: (1) the tendency to make differential cue-producing responses to the values of dimensions that vary within or between settings; and (2) the hypothesis that children have more experience with problems following a two-choice simultaneous discrimination format than a successive one. Subjects were third- and…

Peer reviewedSmiley, Sandra S. – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1972
Color and form preferences of kindergarten, first and third grade Ss were tested using standard two-dimensional geometric forms. (Author)

Peer reviewedScholnick, Ellin Kobsky – Child Development, 1971
Experiment examined the generality of dimensional and cue-location biases in inference and role of directness of information. (Author)

Peer reviewedMontanelli, Dale Soderman – Developmental Psychology, 1972
The specific hypothesis tested by this research is that children are able to attend to multiple cues simultaneously and are able to use the information contained in these cues. (Author)

Peer reviewedBrick, Robert H.; Walls, Richard T. – Child Study Journal, 1973
Ratings over five repeated measures and a two week follow-up indicated that color preferences shifted markedly, yielding the expected interaction. The racial implications of these findings are discussed. (Authors)

Peer reviewedRichardson, Jack; Stanton, Sara K. – American Journal of Psychology, 1972
Results are consistent with the assumption that subjects do not change functional stimuli because of the negative transfer produced by learning different responses to the same nominal stimuli. (Authors/CB)

The present experiment investigated the impact of contextually trained discriminations on gambling behavior. Nine recreational slot-machine players were initially exposed to concurrently available computerized slot machines that were each programmed on random-ratio schedules of reinforcement and differed only in color. All participants distributed…

Peer reviewedTighe, Thomas J.; Tighe, Louise S. – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1972
Presolution reversal prevented or significantly retarded learning in kindergarten and first-grade children but did not hinder learning in fifth-grade children. (Authors)

Peer reviewedSmiley, Sandra S. – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1972
Major finding of this study is that relative cue similarity can be used as a definition of dimensional dominance and that it predicts both initial learning and shift behavior for normal first- and third-grade children. (Author)
