Competency Criteria and the Class Inclusion Task: Modeling Judgments and Justifications.
Thomas, Hoben; Horton, Joseph J.
Developmental Psychology, v33 n6 p1060-73 Nov 1997
Maintained that preschoolers' class inclusion task judgments and justification may be modeled as mixtures of different probability distributions, with different response strategies equivalent to different distributions. Found that justifications lagged behind judgments in development. Concluded that, if a single response variable is to be selected, judgment is likely preferable; but the process must be modeled to identify cognitive strategies. (Author/KB)
