The Effects of Instruction on Length Relations on the Classification, Seriation, and Transitivity Performances of First- and Second-Grade Children

Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 5, 3, 115-125, May 74

First and second graders (n=81) were randomly partitioned into experimental and control groups. The experimentals were given experiences in sorting and seriating objects. Significant treatment and grade effects (p.01) were found on a seriation test, but no significant relationships between classification and transitivity nor seriation and transitivity abilities were obtained.
