Task Variability and the Performance of Black and White Schoolchildren: Vervistic Explorations.
Boykin, A. Wade
Journal of Black Studies, v12 n4 p469-86 Jun 1982
Tested hypothesis that task performance of Black children would be positively influenced by increased format variability. Results indicated that (1) the Black children had home environments higher in stimulation affordance than the White children, and (2) performance levels increased with variability in task presentation format only in the Black sample.
