This article reports one- and two-year follow-up studies of 67 phobic children who were between the ages of 6 and 15 at intake. (Author)

Purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of four levels of videotape training (the independent variable) on a specific class of teacher behaviors (the dependent variable). (Author)

This paper presents a procedure for estimating J scale (latent continuum) probabilities given a set of I scales (preference judgements). (Editor/RK)

This study involved an investigation of the use of Pearson r, tetrachoric r, and Kendall Tau-B coefficients as measures of association for the incomplete principal components analysis of simulated Likert scale attitudinal data, based on a known factor pattern and possessing different types of severe departures from normality.

The study of the contribution of linguistics to the non-quantitative methods of document processing used in information science is the subject of this article. These methods are divided into two broad groups: tabulation (linguistics units extracted from natural language) and interpretative (syntactical and/or semantic analysis). (100 references)…

The finding that the impulsivity-reflectivity dimension was not related to risk-taking behavior was clearly unexpected. (Author)

Information integration theory is a unified general theory that covers several areas of psychology from psychophysics to clinical judgment. It rests on a mathematical basis that has had considerable success in some precise and demanding tests. (Author)

Results indicate that a small number of high frequency words continues to dominate children's writing. However, the actual words within this core appear to indicate a noticeable change from previous studies done in the U.S.A. (Author)

In this research birth-order differences were studied in a sample of young children at three different ordinal positions. (Authors/CB)

This study indicates that a period of positive prior contact between a child subject and an adult experimenter may result in a relative decrease in performance for material reward dispensed by that adult experimenter. (Authors)

Subjects learning high-frequency names had significantly better recall, confirming that color memory is a function of linguistic codability, not perceptual experience. (Author)

Primary purpose of the present research was to test the reasoning that any procedure that interferes with the naming of the test stimuli, while leaving visual complexity unaffected, ought to increase the detrimental effects on reaction time and accuracy produced by changing case. (Authors/CB)

On the assumption that vividness reports and recall were both mediated by the same covert event - a visual image - these results provide further evidence that images have an important role in memory. (Author)
