Gender Differences in the Relationship of Nascent Conservation and Reading Abilities.
Day, H. D.; Hollingsworth, Shirley
Journal of Educational Research, v76 n6 p347-50 Jul-Aug 1983

Findings of this study and others consistently support the hypothesis that conservation ability correlates more highly with reading in girls than in boys. (Author/PP)
