Intellectual Development and Reversibility of Thought in Equation Solving
Adi, Helen
Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 9, 3, 204-13, May 78
Seventy-five preservice elementary school teachers were given a Piagetian-related paper-and-pencil test involving the equilibrium of a beam balance. Results show a significant positive relationship between the developmental levels of the clearness, as measured by the test, and their performance on equation solving when different reversible processes are applied.
