Stimulus Control in Children under a Blocking Paradigm
Lyczak, Richard; Tighe, Thomas
Child Development, 46, 1, 115-122, Mar 75
Presents four studies of concept identification behavior in first graders and kindergarten children under the blocking paradigm as implemented within a multidimensional discrimination task. While blocking was observed in children's learning, the data indicate the need for more sensitive and individualized measures of stimulus control in future blocking experimentation with children.
