Language Effects in Assessment of Class-inclusion Ability.
Hodkin, Barbara
Child Development, v52 n2 p470-78 Jun 1981
Examines language effects in class-inclusion performance with 224 children ages 3 through 12 by comparing the standard Piagetian question with two alternate question forms. Overall, the findings were inconsistent with the Piagetian assertion that logical inability produces errors in comparing subclasses; inclusion performance was a function of language as well as logical ability.
