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)

Peer reviewedMiller, Patricia H. – Child Development, 1973
Results show that both kindergarten nonconservers and kindergarten conservers found height most salient. Third-grade conservers found quantity most salient but could easily attend to height and width. (Author/CB)

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 reviewedBartol, Curt; Pielstick, N. L. – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1972
It was concluded that previous explanations of visual exploration or stimulus preference have been oversimplified, and studies on the whole have failed to take into account a crucial interaction between sex and age variables. (Authors)
