A Conceptual Analysis of Immanent Justice Responses in Children.
Karnoil, Rachel
Child Development, v51 n1 p118-30 Mar 1980
Reports an attempt to test two interpretations of immanent justice responses as causal attributions rather than as moral judgments. Finds older children use causal chains to explain contiguity between misdeed and adversity. Data were interpreted as consistent with an information-processing model of immanent justice responses.
