Children's Development of Concepts Related to Country and Nationality: A Canadian Perspective.
Brown, James A.
Canadian Journal of Education, v5 n3 p55-65 1980
Canadian children follow an apparent sequence in the development of a concept of nationality from a verbal level of understanding of geographical relationships (beginning about age six), to an ability to demonstrate spatial relationships, then to an understanding of one's nationality, at about age 10. There are important educational implications. (SB)
