Development of Seriation and Its Relation to the Achievement of Inferential Transitivity.
Clark, Julia V.
Journal of Research in Science Teaching, v20 n8 p781-94 Nov 1983
Ascertained influence of an intervention in development of operational seriation/transitivity in kindergarten/first-grade children (N=60) who initially failed to demonstrate ability to do seriation/transitivity problems. Seriation of size was also studied. Results, interpreted in context of Piaget's equilibrium theory, indicated advancement toward concrete operation on seriation but not on transitivity problems.
