Sowder, Larry – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 1971
The performance of students from three intelligence levels at grades 4, 5, 6, and 7 on certain discovery tasks in arithmetics are examined. Results indicate that students should be given from 3 to 6 instances to make discoveries of the type tested and that students of lower intelligence levels can form generalizations. (FL)
