Development of Verbal Fluency Abilities and Strategies in Elementary-School-Age Children.
Sincoff, Julie B.; Sternberg, Robert J.
Developmental Psychology, v24 n5 p646-53 Sep 1988

When a smaller sample of similarly aged students completed expanded versions of tasks, results revealed grade and gender differences in strategy use and level of task performance. (RH)
