Peer reviewedHill, Daniel – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1980
For 89 White children 6 to 11 years old and of upper middle class, scores on Piagetian tasks of conservation of length and volume were related to age but field independence was correlated significantly to these scores. (Author)

Concludes that despite a significant relationship between conservation and intelligence, neither is a significant predictor of reading achievement. (RB)

Peer reviewedWasik, Barbara H.; And Others – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1980
The study investigated the effects of basic concepts training on conservation acquisition in 41 kindergarten children (17 White boys, 15 White girls, 6 Black girls, and 5 Black boys). Only the conservation training program resulted in significant effects, and that was for the White students alone. (Author)

Peer reviewedFoorman, Barbara R. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1981
Piaget and Inhelder's Water-level Task, the Preschool Embedded Figures Test, and a mental processing measure called Mr. Cucui were administered to 42 four-year-olds. The significant correlation between Mr. Cucui and the horizontal/vertical bottles was discussed from the neo-Piagetian perspective of Pascual-Leone's theory of constructive operators.…

Seventy mentally retarded students, successfully taught to conserve number and substance in the Piagetian sense, resisted attempts at extinction but were unable to generalize to other conservation tasks. (Author)

Peer reviewedKingma, J.; Roelinga, U. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1982
Children completed three types of equivalent cardination tasks which assessed the influence of different stimulus configurations (linear, linear-nonlinear, and nonlinear), and density of object spacing. Prior results reported by Siegel, Brainerd, and Gelman and Gallistel were not replicated. Implications for understanding cardination concept…
