Concrete Operations and Attentional Capacity.

Chapman, Michael; Lindenberger, Ulman

Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, v47 n2 p236-58 Apr 1989

To test predictions regarding the attentional capacity requirements of Piaget's stage of concrete operations, a battery of concrete operational tasks and two measures of attentional capacity were administered to 120 first-, second-, and third-graders. Findings concern class inclusion, transitivity of length and weight, and multiplication of classes and relations. (RH)
