Reflection-Impulsivity and Wholist-Analytic: Two Fledglings...or is R-I a cuckoo?

Jones, Anne Elizabeth

Educational Psychology, v17 n1-2 p65-77 Mar-Jun 1997

Considers the theoretical validity of two approaches to cognitive style. Wholist-Analytic maintains that cognitive processes depend on the interaction of two opposing forces, destructive and constructive. Reflection-Impulsivity characterizes learners according to their reflective or impulsive responses to solution hypotheses. Evaluates these approaches in light of other cognitive theories. (MJP)
