Some Effects of Telling Preschool Children to Self-Question in a Matching Task.
Fjellstrom, Glen G.; And Others
Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, v46 n3 p419-37 Dec 1988
Preschoolers presented with a difficult match-to-sample task requiring task analysis performed successfully when taught to overtly ask themselves questions about the salient features of each display and then answer the questions. Most subjects performed poorly when told not to use the self-questions and answers, but performed well again when taught covert self-questions and answers. (RH)
