Cognitive Development and the Structuring of Geometric Content.
McDonald, Janet L.
Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, v20 n1 p76-94 Jan 1989
Students at concrete or formal operational reasoning levels made similarity judgments on geometric concepts and mathematical expressions on ratio, proportion, and similarity. Clear prototypical maps could be derived for both groups. Formal operational students structured subject matter content significantly more like subject matter experts than concrete operational students did. (MNS)
