Enhanced Role Taking through Cooperative Interdependence: A Field Study.
Bridgeman, Diane L.
Child Development, v52 n4 p1231-38 Dec 1981
Examined effects of cooperation on role taking and moral reasoning in 120 fifth-grade students. Classrooms using cooperative peer-initiated group learning were compared with other innovative and more traditional teacher-centered methods. Role taking was found to be enhanced by cooperative interdependence, but moral reasoning level was not affected. (Author/DB)
