This monograph presents a theory of conceptual development, the main construct which is central structure. These structures are defined as networks semantic nodes and relations represent children's core knowledge can be applied to full range tasks in given domain. Comprehensive cross-cultural testing model six-year programme instructional research show how transformation these have powerful influence on subsequent acquisition. The work should interest cognitive scientists, educational...
40 healthy, normal newborn infants were evaluated with reference to their ability discriminate among visual stimulus arrays consisting of 2 versus 3 or 4 6 black dots. Infants made this discrimination within a habituation/dishabituation paradigm for the small number sets (2 and 2) but not larger (4 4). We argue that suggests abstract numerical invariance from small-set may be evidence complex information processing during first week life.
In this international, longitudinal study, we explored gender differences in, and gendered relationships among, math-related motivations emphasized in the Eccles (Parsons) et al. (1983) expectancy-value framework, high school math participation, educational aspirations, career plans. Participants were from Australia, Canada, United States (Ns = 358, 471, 418, respectively) Grades 9/10 at Time 1 11/12 2. The 3 samples came suburban middle to upper-middle socioeconomic backgrounds, primarily...
KEATING, DANIEL P., and BOBBITT, BRUCE L. Individual Developmental Differences in Cognitive-processing Components of Mental Ability. CHILD DEVELOPMENT, 1978, 49, 155-167. Cognitive activity has been viewed from a variety research perspectives, but there have few attempts to integrate these different perspectives theoretically or empirically order gain more general picture human cognition. The 3 developmental psychology, experimental differential psychology are used this an attempt understand...

This study examined the development of young people's understanding nurturance and self‐determination rights. One hundred sixty‐nine participants from 5 age groups (8, 10, 12, 14, 16 years age) participated in a semistructured interview containing hypothetical vignettes, which story character wished to exercise right or that conflicted with wishes practices those authority. Participants were asked decide if they would support character's request for rights justify their decisions. Younger...
Children enter elementary school with widely different skill levels in core subjects. Whether because of differences aptitude or preparedness, these initial often translate into systematic disparities achievement over time. How can teachers reduce disparities? Three possibilities are to offer basic skills training, expose students higher order instruction, provide socioemotional support. Repeated measures analyses longitudinal data from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute Child...

This article investigates the benefits of girls-only classroom instruction in math and science during Grades 9 10, context a public coeducational high school. It is based on longitudinal investigation with 786 participants: 85 girls all-girl classes, 319 382 boys regular program. Preexisting achievement, background, psychological characteristics were included as covariates to ensure comparability groups. Significant post-intervention program effects found for achievement course enrollment....
Growth curve modelling was used to trace the trajectory of prestige dimension career aspirations from Grade 9 through 3 years after high school, as a function gender and early school math achievement. The sample consisted 218 university-bound adolescents (129 female, 89 male). Initial aspiration levels, slope, curvature trajectories all differed significantly performance. No significant or by achievement effects were found. These results support notion that functions "critical filter"...
W hat does one do for a junior high school student who already knows more mathematics than his teacher? The question is not as implausible it may seem at first glance. From preliminary work with seventh, eighth, and young ninth graders Johns Hopkins University, clear that sizable number of these youngsters score extremely on the College Entrance Examination Board (CEEB) Scholastic Aptitude TestMathematical (SAT-M) Mathematics Level I Achievement Test (M-I), often higher their math teachers...
