Effects of Training and Set Size on Children's Judgments of Number and Length

Baron, Jonathan; And Others

Developmental Psychology, 11, 5, 583-588, Sep 75

When comparing rows of dots in length or number, some children used number strategies and some length strategies. After training to correct missed items, errors were made on previously correct items. These findings are interpreted with reference to the distinction between having a dimensional strategy and attaching it to appropriate situations. (JMB)
