In Defense of Resources.
Bjorklund, David F.; Harnishfeger, Katherine Kipp
Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, v47 n1 p19-25 Feb 1989
This response to Brainerd and Reyna's paper (in this issue) argues that the common resources hypothesis can be applied to a wider range of phenomena than can the output-interference hypothesis. Presents results of a dual-task experiment under bidirectional deficits. Concludes that dual-task studies do not provide critical tests of the resources hypothesis. (RH)
