Don't Throw Out the Piagetian Baby with the Psychometric Bath: Reply to Humphreys and Parsons.

Kohlberg, Lawrence; DeVries, Rheta

Intelligence, v4 n2 p175-77 Apr-Jun 1980

These authors cite their own study of the relationship between traditional measures of intelligence and Piagetian measures of cognitive development in support of Glass and Stephens' contention that there are important qualitative differences. They question Humphreys' and Parsons' conclusions on both substantive and factor theoretical grounds. (CTM)
