This paper criticizes the Yeany, Yap, and Padilla paper (1986). Questions the internal consistency about hierarchical relationships of integrated processes and cognitive reasoning concerning procedures used for the generation of subhierarchies, instrumentation used to assess the process skills, and rigor of lexicon.

Validation of an Instrument and Testing Protocol for Measuring the Combinatorial Analysis Schema.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Staver, John R.; Harty, Harold – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 1979
