Phillips, Darrell G.
Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 8, 1, 9-19, 71

Presentation was by individual interview using either objects or drawings to present tasks. Results show five of six tested followed anticipated order and that method of presentation showed no significant difference. (DS)
