Odom, 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)

Dean, Anne L.; Scherzer, Elise – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1982
Examines the hypothesis that errors in children's drawings of objects in anticipated states of rotation result from their inability to imagine the objects in those states. The hypothesis was tested by comparing children's performances on a drawing version and a reaction-time version of a rotating squares task. (Author/RH)

De Soto, Janet L.; De Soto, Clinton B. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1983
The relationship between reading achievement and ability to process verbal information in achieving and nonachieving fourth-grade readers is examined.

Pihl, R. O.; Niaura, Ray – Journal of Clinical Psychology, 1982
Administered a complex reaction time task to 47 learning-disabled and 41 control children. The preparatory interval between a warning and act light was manipulated for length and regularity. Results indicated that the inability to sustain attention over time, rather than momentary inattentiveness, distinguished the two groups. (Author)

Margolis, Julie F.; Christina, Robert W. – Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 1981
Research using subjects wearing glasses that allowed them to see a target but not their responding limb or the outcome of movement indicated that there is a relationship between proficiency of performance and variability of target practice. (CJ)

Verna, Gary B. – Child Development, 1982
Examines the choice behavior of White third graders who indicated either a preference or no preference for closeness to Whites over Blacks on a social distance measure. Several predictions based on conflict theory were made pertaining to choice behavior and latency of responding in the two preference groups. (Author/RH)

Reder, Lynne M. – Cognitive Psychology, 1979
Adults read stories; then made plausibility judgments about statements with respect to the stories. The inherent plausibility of the queried statements, the amount of attention subjects focused on information necessary for making a judgment, and the interval between presentation of the relevant information and the test probe were varied.…
