Reports results of short-term training procedures upon the acquisition of the concept of conservation in children. (DR)
Descriptors: Cognitive Development, Concept Teaching, Conservation (Concept), Cues
Reversibility Training and Stimulus Desirability as Factors in Conservation of Number
Roll, Samuel – Child Develop, 1970
Training increased conservation responding but not verbalization of conservation principles. Stimulus desirability did not affect presence of conservation even in laboring-class subjects. (MH)
Descriptors: Cognitive Development, Conservation (Concept), Motivation, Number Concepts
Scalogram Analysis of Logical and Perceptual Components of Conservation of Discontinuous Quantity
Schwartz, Marilyn Miller; Scholinick, Ellin Kofsky – Child Develop, 1970
Descriptors: Cognitive Processes, Conservation (Concept), Logical Thinking, Statistical Analysis
A Discrimination Task Which Induces Conservation of Number
Halford, G. S.; Fullerton, T. J. – Child Develop, 1970
Results indicated that the training method (discrimination) induced 8 of the 12 subjects to acquire conservation of a stable kind. (Author/DR)
Descriptors: Cognitive Development, Concept Teaching, Conservation (Concept), Learning Processes
Predictive Versus Perceptual Responses to Piaget's Water-Line Task and Their Relation to Distance Conservation
Ford, Leroy H., Jr. – Child Develop, 1970

Verbal Mediators and Cue Discrimination in the Transition from Nonconservation to Conservation of Number
Peters, Donald L. – Child Develop, 1970
Four groups of kindergarten children were involved in a pretest-posttest experiment comparing verbal cued, visual cued, verbal rule sulpplemented instruction on conservation tasks. Both language level and analytic sorting behavior were reliable predictions of number conservation performance in individual children. (Author/WY)
