The Development of Children's Economic Reasoning.
Schug, Mark C.; Birkey, C. Jean
Theory and Research in Social Education, v13 n1 p31-42 Spr 1985
This study that examined the economic reasoning of preschool and elementary school children concluded that (1) the nature of children's economic reasoning is supportive of cognitive development theory; (2) children's economic reasoning varies somewhat by personal experiences, and (3) the intermediate grades are an appropriate level to emphasize economic instruction.
