Influence of Feature Training on the Formation of Exemplar-Specific Representations in Children with Mental Retardation.
Rosenquist, Celia
American Journal on Mental Retardation, v105 n1 p47-57 Jan 2000
A study examined whether exemplar-specific or prototype representations were primarily used by 28 children (ages 10-12) with mild mental retardation in a categorization task consisting of two groups of make-believe animals whose features were ill-defined. Results indicated the children were able to acquire and use both types of representations. (Contains references.) (Author/CR)
