Seventy-three children (ages…

Svanum, Soren; Bringle, Robert G. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1980
The confluence model of cognitive development was tested on 7,060 children. Family size, sibling order within family sizes, and hypothesized age-dependent effects were tested. Findings indicated an inverse relationship between family size and the cognitive measures; age-dependent effects and other confluence variables were found to be…
