Developmental Changes in Achievement Evaluation: Motivational Implications of Self-Other Differences.
Ruble, Diane N.; And Others
Child Development, v65 n4 p1095-1110 Aug 1994
Examined the development of self-evaluative biases by having children at 3 age levels (5-6, 7-8, and 9-10 years) evaluate themselves or another child when given social or temporal comparison feedback. Found that there was greater bias for general ability evaluations by older children and greater bias for specific performance evaluations by younger children. (MDM)
