Evaluation Processes in Young Children's Problem Solving.
Steinberg, Esther R.
Contemporary Educational Psychology, v5 n3 p276-81 Jul 1980
Faced with a problem in which the probability of obtaining the correct answer was 70 percent, 2 of 23 kindergartners and 18 of 19 second graders generated an appropriate strategy. When the probability of a chance correct response was reduced to .45, 23 of 35 kindergartners generated an appropriate strategy. (Author/GDC)
