Descriptors: Black Youth, Concept Formation, Conservation (Concept), Data Analysis
Peer reviewedOdom, Richard; Buzman, Richard D. – Developmental Psychology, 1972
It was shown that hierarchies change with development and that relative salience of a dimension is negatively associated with both reaction time of choice and number of errors on the identity task. (Authors)
Descriptors: Cognitive Processes, Data Analysis, Elementary School Students, Perceptual Development
Peer reviewedBaldwin, Thelma L.; And Others – Child Development, 1971
Descriptors: Communication (Thought Transfer), Grade 5, Peer Relationship, Racial Differences
