Children's Precocious Anticipatory Images of End States.
Dean, Anne L.; Deist, Steven
Child Development, v51 n4 p1040-49 Dec 1980

Results support Piaget's (1977) hypothesis that reasoning on the basis of state correspondence defines a developmental level which precedes the development of transformational thought. (Author/MP)
