Estimation of Euclidian Quantity by 5- and 6-Year-Old Children: Facilitating a Multiplication Rule.
Wolf, Yuval
Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, v59 n1 p49-75 Feb 1995
Five- to six-year-old children estimated the size of Euclidian objects using an addition rule of Height plus Width, rather than a multiplying rule. Within the framework of information integration theory, tested whether intensive handling of objects would facilitate shift from addition rule to multiplication rule. Found that following handling, subjects did make such a shift. (TM)
