Introtacts as Predictors of Discrimination Performance in Kindergarten Children
Spiker, Charles C.; Cantor, Joan H.
Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 23, 3, 520-538, Jun 77
Kindergarten children were given simultaneous discrimination tasks with two irrelevant dimensions varying within settings. Prior to each block of feedback trials, the children were asked to provide a statement of the solution. The trial block on which the correct relevant dimension was first verbalized was found to be predictive of discrimination performance. (Author/JMB)
