A Comparative Study of Piaget-Type Conservation Tasks

Hademenos, James G.

School Science and Mathematics, 74, 8, 680-6, Dec 74

Preservice teachers administered Piagetian tasks to elementary students. On the whole data collected compared favorably with the findings of Renner (EJ 044 727) in showing that students achieved conservation of substance (liquids and solids), length, area, and weight at later ages than stated by Piaget. No significant sex differences were found. (SD)
