The Performance of Gifted Girls in Upper Elementary School Grades on Piagetian Tasks of Concrete and Formal Operations.

Bekey, Shirley

Educational Research Quarterly, v10 n4 p2-9 1986-87

Gifted and highly gifted girls in grades four to six were given Piagetian-type manipulative problem-solving tasks reflecting formal operations. Although Flavell suggested that a chronological age of 10 years was necessary for successful completion of these tasks, time allowed was a more valid predictor. (LMO)
