Evidence about Partial Information from an Answer-until-Correct Administration of a Test of Spatial Reasoning.

Hutchinson, T. P.

Contemporary Educational Psychology, v11 n3 p264-75 Jul 1986

Second, it is positively related to first choice performance. A number of theories incorporating partial knowledge are compared quantitatively. (Author/LMO)
