Collaborative Problem Solving and Children's Planning Skills.
Gauvain, Mary; Rogoff, Barbara
Developmental Psychology, v25 n1 p139-51 Jan 1989

Results suggest that cognitive gains resulting from joint problem solving between children and adults or peers may be more likely with shared task responsibility. (RH)
