Hypothesis Testing on a Proportional Reasoning Task by Children at Different Piagetian Stage Levels.
Peer reviewedGruen, Gerald E.; And Others – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 1986
Examined the relationship between 7-, 9-, and 11-year old children's performance on a battery of selected Piagetian measures and on a proportional reasoning task. Found a strong relationship between stage level and (1) the complexity of hypotheses used, (2) the use of the proportional hypothesis, and (3) the overall use of logical hypotheses. (HOD)
