Life-Science Concept Development Among Beginning Kindergarten Children From Three Different Community Settings
Riechard, Donald E.
Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 10, 1, 39-50, 73
Kindergarten children from three communities were tested on the Life-Science Concept Acquisition Test. Regression analysis indicated that significant differences existed among children from inner-urban, outer-urban, and rural farm communities on verbal, nonverbal, and total measures. Major source of significance was between outer-urban and inner-urban subjects. (PS)
